16 Location, Climate and Crop Yields Farmers change what they grow, when, where and how in response to changes in climate, technology, and markets (careful of the dumb farmer assumption) Crops move Spatial reallocation accounts for about percent of the increase in U.S. corn output since 1909 U.S. corn is now grown in a climate that is 0.8 to 4.5 o C colder than in 1909 had it not moved (depending on the month)
