Abstract
This study uses a global land system model (MAgPIE) to assess land-use adaptation and its cost under different crop model projections, including CO2 fertilization effects. Under a low-emissions scenario (SSP1-RCP2.6), land-use changes are slight, and costs are near zero. For a high-emissions scenario (SSP5-RCP8.5), adaptation involves cropland area changes and technological investments, with costs ranging from -1.5 to +19 US$/ton of dry matter per year. High variance among high-emissions impact projections hinders effective adaptation planning.
