Rice is a crucial food in Malaysia, but local farmers can't keep up with demand, so Malaysia imports a lot of rice. Climate change caused by human activities like burning fossil fuels is expected to hurt rice production in Malaysia. A study looked at data from 1970 to 2013 and found that higher carbon dioxide levels reduce rice output, while more rainfall increases it. This means that in the future, Malaysia needs to consider climate changes when making policies to ensure there's enough rice for everyone.
