The £3m facility at the University of Essex has an indoor field replicating real environments across the globe and suites that imitate a warming world.
Biologist professor Tracy Lawson said the university was in a unique position to be able to "grow and select plants for tomorrow's atmosphere today".
It will be officially opened later.
