Rainfed spring canola yield response to changing heat and water stress in the Canadian Prairie region

Canola is a significant crop in Canadian agriculture and the economy. However, Canada's average temperatures have risen rapidly over the past eight decades, changing temperature patterns and water availability for canola production. This study aims to explore the impacts of air temperature and soil water availability on spring canola production from 2025 to 2050. Accordingly, this study introduces DSSAT calibration and simulation of the current …
