Australian crop yields are projected to decline due to hotter and drier conditions, including intense heat spikes  . Interactions of heat and drought could lead to even greater losses than heat alone . Australian wheat yields are projected to decline by 2050, with a median yield decline of up to 30% in southwest Australia and up to 15% in southern Australia, with possible increases and decreases in the east . In temperate fruit, accumulated winter chill for horticulture is projected to further decline . Winegrape maturity is projected to occur earlier due to warmer temperatures  (Webb et al., 2014; van Leeuwen and Darriet, 2016;
