Influence of Drought on Tomato Yield in China
Tomato, as one of the most important vegetables in China, has been widely planted all around China for decades. During the last few years, with the rapid advancement of China’s tomato sauce industry, the tomato processing industry in China also began to be greatly developed, which triggered a large yield of tomatoes.
In China, tomato’s yield was also affected by climate and various natural disasters. According to domestic several reports, the tomato yield in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, a main planting region of tomato in China, has decreased dramatically due to the drought attack since 2012. So what impacts resulted from drought will be on China’s tomato’s planting and yield? In this report, we conducted a detailed analysis on the influencing factors of the tomato’s planting and production situation in China. Among which, the relationship between tomato’s yield and drought in China is highlighted.

Tomato planting in China
It is estimated that the planting area of tomato planting in China would XXXX in the following years according to the XXXX.
Historic planting area of tomato in China, 1995-2011
During the development of tomato planting in China in 1995-2011, the major planting areas of tomato also experienced some transfer, from the XXXX to XXXX China.
Additionally, as XXXX have been the severest regions affected by droughts in China, it is predicted that the trend of severer droughts in these region would not bring a positive influence on tomato planting and may even drag down the tomato output in these regions.
