What effect this planetary phenomenon has on plants, and therefore the animals that feed on them, and which we consume in abundance, is one of the questions that worries researchers and farmers. Will the plant stop growing? the heat stuffy? Will the floods destroy the crops, or will they be reduced by the late frosts, as we have already seen in France and other countries? What is the nutritional value of cereals exposed to extreme heat and Drought ?

Therefore, climate change poses enormous challenges to humanity, particularly through the threats it poses to global food security. To avoid frequent famines, and drivers of political destabilization, many advocate the cultivation of Earth else. How ? by With nature, not against it.as suggested permaculture. Futura met with some of the players concerned with soil restoration. On file pages, also file and visit breeder converted toagroforestry.
