According to David Mortensen, professor of weed and applied plant ecology, Penn State, synthetic - auxin herbicides are usually used early in the growing

warmer weather extends the growing
season, it also changes the growing zones while also allowing for the survival of agricultural pests and weeds that normally can not endure the cold, putting
crops more at risk for damage.

Of course, this still doesn't fill in many missing bits of information (such as the knowledge that even if parts of Canada or Siberia get

seasons of the proper duration (i.e. number of months with a minimum amount of sunlight per day) to make them viable for
crops.
While many standard garden vegetables can not be planted outside or started from seed until the soil is fully

-- Higher CO2 concentrations will increase
crop yields significantly —
Warmer temperatures will increase growing
season, plus add to overall arable surface area
The drop in mean temperatures since 1950 in the Northern Hemisphere has been sufficient, for example, to shorten Britain's growing
season for
crops by two weeks... The first half of this century has apparently been the
warmest period since the «hot spell» between 5,000 and 7,000 years ago immediately following the last ice age.»
Twice as much CO2 and a modest 1 degree Celsius
warming would benefit the world in many ways, extending growing
seasons for agriculture, increasing
crop yields, and lessening human mortality, which increases in cold weather.
Some growers salvaged a decent yield by diversifying their
crops — and taking advantage of a late -
season warm spell to do some last - minute harvesting.
Increased weed and pest pressure associated with longer growing
seasons and
warmer winters will be an increasingly important challenge; there are already examples of earlier arrival and increased populations of some insect pests such as corn earworm.64 Furthermore, many of the most aggressive weeds, such as kudzu, benefit more than
crop plants from higher atmospheric carbon dioxide, and become more resistant to herbicide control.72 Many weeds respond better than most cash
crops to increasing carbon dioxide concentrations, particularly «invasive» weeds with the so - called C3 photosynthetic pathway, and with rapid and expansive growth patterns, including large allocations of below - ground biomass, such as roots.73 Research also suggests that glyphosate (for example, Roundup), the most widely - used herbicide in the United States, loses its efficacy on weeds grown at the increased carbon dioxide levels likely to occur in the coming decades.74 To date, all weed /
crop competition studies where the photosynthetic pathway is the same for both species favor weed growth over
crop growth as carbon dioxide is increased.72
Furthermore, double -
cropping can become an alternative to current practices in areas with very long growing

crops, increases insect and fungal growth, increases the spread of said non-indigenous vermin, alters the range of
crops to where geology and infrastructure (such as irrigation and farms) is not favourable (north of the Southern Manitoba bread - basket is boreal forest too acidic for
crops and north even further is only accessible by winter roads)...... these problems are potentially solvable, but certainly as soon as Chinese Himalayan meltwater dries up, or as soon as a Monsoon

You are unable to demonstrate based on empirical data that these temperatures will be harmful — and there are some indications that a slightly
warmer temperature (especially in the higher latitudes, where GH

seasons and result in higher overall
crop yields.
