Global spatially explicit yield gap time trends reveal regions at risk of future crop yield stagnation

This paper reveals a comprehensive analysis of yield gaps for ten major crops from 1975 to 2010. It identifies regions of 'steady growth', 'stalled floor', and 'ceiling pressure', shedding light on the risks of yield stagnation. The research, conducted by a team of experts, emphasizes crucial policy recommendations for food security.
