The Farmland Atlas
One person's map of where the ground still works. A weighted index of climate, water, land quality and hazards, projected for 2070 under SSP2-4.5, with overlays for people, access and land use. Click anywhere and read the score.
open the piece at farmlandatlas.com →An existing model, not ours, and worth a card because it is the shape the desk argues for: an open, clickable projection with its assumptions on the surface. Read today.
What the site says about itself: "The Farmland Atlas", "where the land will still be worth farming", "Farmland viability · 2070", "One weighted index of the physical land: climate, water, land quality (soil and terrain), and hazards." Overlays for land and soil, climate, water, hazards, people and access, and land use. The scenario shown is SSP2-4.5 for 2070. The creator is given as Norbert L. Kiss, with no affiliation. Its methodology page says "Coming very soon. I'm making final edits."
What the post says: the claim above is from @vibeeval ("digital ghost") on X, 2026-07-09, in Turkish, as translated in Anselm's transcript; it also describes per-point scores for climate, water, soil, disaster risk, governance and access, a crop list per point, and multiple scenarios to 2100. The site as read today shows one scenario and one year. Which is current is not settled, so both are recorded.
Not stated anywhere read: data licence, the underlying climate and soil datasets, the weights. When the methodology page is published this card gets a second pass, and the desk's own water and agriculture pieces should cite it where they overlap.
claims it answers
- “someone created a site mapping which parts of the world will still be suitable for agriculture in 2100, farmland atlas. it scores over 5 million points, each calculated separately for different climate scenarios, up to 2100.”
