Article Synopsis
  • * A study used data from 28 locations in Canterbury and Hawke's Bay from 2005 to 2022 to analyze how factors like maximum and minimum temperature and precipitation impact carrot seed yield at different growth stages.
  • * Results showed significant climate variability impacts, with minimum temperatures having the largest negative effect on yield during crucial phases, highlighting the vulnerability of carrot seed production to changing climate patterns.
