Study on the impact of climate change on crop producing is an extension of the classic studies on natural disaster induced crop producing risk to the area of climate change, as well as an extension of climate change impact on crop yield to the risk domain, a typical interdisciplinary field. It is important for risk governance of future food insecurity induced by climate change and adaptation strategies fostering global food resilience. This study reviews the advances in the study of impact of climate change on regional crop yield risk and multi-breadbaskets synchronized failure risk. The impact driver is summarized from the aspects of changes in climate mean, variability, and extremes, and changes in climate oscillation. Progresses and challenges in methodology are summarized, and perspective for future research are supplied:(1)Figure out further the driver of climate change impact on yield risk, and improve the skills of process-based crop models in reproducing the yield variability, especially in capturing the yield loss due to single or compound climate extremes.(2)Promote the modelling and simulation capability of spatiotemporal dependent risks, and improve our understanding of multi-crop-multi-region synchronized failure.(3)Reveal global crop producing risk landscape under climate change systematically by uncovering the spatiotemporal pattern of regional and global crop producing risk changes in the past and the future. And finally derive mean-increasing and variance-reducing adaptation strategies to face the challenge of future climate change. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
