Current knowledge of the impacts of ozone on food crops in South Asia
Summary
The document highlights that rapid industrialization and economic growth in Asia have led to higher ozone precursor emissions and concentrations. It emphasizes the need to improve understanding of ozone's impact on South Asian agriculture via experimental assessments and regional scale modelling to evaluate risks to agricultural production.
Key insights
- Rapid industrialization and economic growth in various parts of Asia have caused an increase in ozone precursor pollutants and higher ozone concentrations.
- There is a critical need to improve knowledge regarding the potential impacts of ozone on agriculture in South Asia, which can be achieved through experimental crop assessments and regional scale modelling studies to determine risks to agricultural production.
