US Midwest Breadbasket (a) 2020 and (b) 2500 under RCP6.0 scenario. A characterization of the ‘breadbasket’ area of the US Midwest today and in 2500. In 2500, monocultured cereals may be replaced by a subtropical agroforestry of fictional plants (based on oil palms and arid zone succulents). Potential future water capture and irrigation devices can be glimpsed among the crops to offset the effects of extreme summer heat.
