In Quebec’s strawberry fields, a tiny insect may forecast big climate impacts: study

A bug encroaching on Quebec’s strawberry fields could help forecast climate change’s impact on agriculture, a new study suggests, the latest to consider what the authors called the “colossal task” of sustainable farming on a warming planet. 
Researchers out of Laval University say migratory leafhoppers – small cicada-like insects that benefit from temperature increases – appear to be arriving earlier in the season and dominating fields around Quebec City.
