April '08: "Record 2008 Crop for Brazil"
2008 Crop Trip Report: Brazil Expected to Produce Three Record 2007/08 CropsIn looking at the graph below, I'm failing to see any evidence that small amounts of warming or CO2 devastated corn yields in recent decades. Can someone please help me out?
Brazil is forecast in 2007/08 to produce three record crops for corn, cotton and soybeans due to a combination of increased planted area and favorable weather.

The increase in corn yield is attributed to more closely planted fields. And since the corn uses CO2, it makes total sense that increasing CO2 would increase yield.
