A study shows that coffee plants will be 'drastically' less suitable for cultivation in current coffee-producing regions by 2050 because of the impacts of climate change.
The study examined how coffee-growing conditions will change by 2050 based on projections from several global climate models. Results show that coffee plants will be"drastically" less suitable for cultivation in current coffee-producing regions by 2050 because of the impacts of climate change. Arabica coffee, which is used by Starbucks and other major coffee sellers, is already a finicky crop that requires specific conditions to flourish.
The authors concluded that for all three crops,"climate change adaptation will be necessary in most major producing regions." That could include breeding varieties that are better suited to the new conditions. And in the case of coffee, it might also mean switching to Robusta trees, which are hardier but produce beans generally considered to be of lower quality than Arabica beans.
