Özet
Caused by global warming, climate change is one of the main problems around the world and affects the world agriculture industry. Being an annual plant produced more than 600 million tons per year, wheat has great economic importance around the world. Wheat is produced all across Turkey, particularly in the Central Anatolia. For the first time, wheat was cultivated around Karacadağ of the Southeast Anatolia Region. In Turkey, it has more than 20 wild species and more than 400 culture types. Wheat production constitutes a large part of the grain production (approximately 22.6 million tons annually) and is carried out in 26.5% of the total cultivated areas. It is estimated that climate change will affect wheat production—and thus food safety—at a significant level. For future generations, ensuring the protection and increase of grain, and especially wheat, diversity gradually gains importance. This chapter offers solution strategies by examining the impacts of climate change on wheat production and food safety in Turkey and around the world. © 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
