Ways plants can be affected by the environment:
plant growth is affected by many factors
overnight temperatures affect corn production
higher temperature lower corn yield (bu/acre)
real problem —> temperatures are rising
Overnight lows have increased 1.5°F already
climate change
Corn is the largest U.S. crop
12 billion bushels worth about 56 billion dollars
even a 1% loss is worth over $500 million
