Table 12 shows the average price, yield and gross margin rate for each of the crops. The last column of the table exhibits the proposed composition of land size for each type of the crops, i.e. 51% of the agriculture zone, regardless of the total size of the zone, grows wheat, 26% for Barley, 16% for oilseed rape, 4% for potatoes and the remaining 3% for sugar beet. This composition is representative of the average situation at the UK level between year 2005 and 2009, when considering the types of crops listed in the table.

We apply the projected scales of changes in crop yields and the corresponding production prices that were available in the REGIS model. This model was developed to estimate regional climate change impact and response of several sectors, including coast, water, biodiversity and agriculture in East Anglia and North West England, and more details are available in the technical report (RegIS, 2001). Table 13 exhibits the projected relative changes in the levels of yields and prices by types of crops and future scenarios. Note that these are not region-specific. We obtain projected yields and prices by scaling up or down the historical figures in years 1997/1998. For example, the yield of wheat in 1997/1998 was 7.5 tonne/ha, and accordingly, the projected yield of wheat in 2020s is 10.5 tonne/ha (7.5*140/100) in A1 scenario. As far as production price is concerned, the price of wheat in 1997/98 was £83.24/tonne (1997£) and is projected at around £111/tonne (2008£) in scenario A1 in 2020s. Price levels are adjusted according to agriculture price indices available in Defra database. Assuming that gross margin rates remain constant in the future, we estimate the gross margin per ha for each type of crops in 2020 and 2025 (both years are considered in the period of 2020s).
