Fruit cultivation is affected by global climate change at a higher rate because it is a multi-year agricultural activity. The purpose of this study is to explain the possible effects global climate change might have on the phenological periods of some horticultural plants. The yield in fruit species is related to the amount of flowers. Together with climate change, flowering time on plants will change. While extreme weather conditions such as extreme heat, extreme precipitation directly affect fruit production and quality, unexpected changes can be negative effects plant–pollinator interactions. Early blooming of fruit trees may increase late frost damage, the quality of early crops will deteriorate and market values will decrease.
