Project Details

Description

Swedish agriculture has become more specialized and uniform in recent decades, making agroecosystems vulnerable to extreme climate events. This study examines how crop diversity influences productivity under adverse climatic conditions, with a focus on Skåne County. By using a crop diversity index and data from the 2018 drought, the results aim to contribute to understanding how diversified cropping systems can strengthen agriculture's resilience to climate change.
