In its letter dated January 5, 2020, the BMEL Division 423 asks the Thünen Institute (TI), the Julius Kühn Institute (JKI) and, for information purposes, the German Meteorological Service (DWD) and the Center for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF) to answer the following questions: 1. how are agricultural yields expected to change in Germany for the most important main crop types and forage areas for selected climate scenarios until 2050 (taking into account average changes as well as extreme weather events including hail, storms and thunderstorms)? 2. if the results for question 1 would show significant yield declines, what are the adaptation options for the agricultural industry and agricultural policy? The commission letter was preceded by an outline jointly prepared by the project consortium for a statement to answer the above questions, which was requested by BMEL Unit 423 at the Thünen Institute on 14.09.2020 and sent by the project consortium to BMEL Unit 423 on 27.10.2020. The main objective of the project is therefore to answer the above questions.
