Abstract: Under the background of global climate change, we analyze the change tendency of average temperature and amount of precipitation influencing the corn's growth period. The results show that from March to August, the monthly temperatures show an upward trend, but the rise is different in different months, and the maximum temperature rise is in May. Precipitation in different months has different trends. Climate change brings about favorable conditions at high altitudes in Fengjie, reduces production due to the temperature drop after the beginning of autumn, and increases the pressure on the corn supply.
