Potato Production
http://link.springer.com/article/10.100 ... 363#page-1
Potato supply chainThe effect of climate change on global potato production was assessed. Potential yields were calculated with a simulation model and a grid with monthly climate data for current (1961-1990) and projected (2010-2039) and 2040-2069) conditions...For this period, global potential potato yield decreases by 18% to 32% (without adaptation) and by 9% to 18% (with adaptation).

Potato and citrus in the US
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/ar ... 1X9500059E
Irrigated potato in humid climateResults of citrus simulations without CO2-induced yield improvement indicate that production may shift slightly northward in the southern states, but yields may decline in southern Florida and Texas due to excessive heat during the winter. CO2 effects tended to counteract the decline in simulated citrus yields. Fall potato production under current management practices appears vulnerable to an increase in temperature in the northern states; increased CO2 and changes in planting date were estimated to have minimal compensating impacts on simulated potato yields.

Life would be good for UK potato farmers provided we've got water and petroleum-based fertilizer...oops.Assuming crop husbandry factors are unchanged, farm yields would show only marginal increases (3–6%) due to climate change owing to limitations in nitrogen availability. In contrast, future potential yields, without restrictions in water or fertiliser, are expected to increase by 13–16%. Future average irrigation needs, assuming unconstrained water availability, are predicted to increase by 14–30%, depending on emissions scenario. The present ‘design’ capacity for irrigation infrastructure would fail to meet future peak irrigation needs in nearly 50% of years. Adaptation options for growers to cope with these impacts are discussed.

Possibly more corn and sorghum but less wheat and soybeans
