Key Findings

  • Climate change directly and indirectly affects food production in many regions, including lost crops and dwindling employment opportunities. These impacts will likely become more severe by 2030 and beyond, placing global food security and the livelihoods of hundreds of millions of people at risk.

  • Now is the time to scale up efforts to reshape the agriculture sector to support farmers, avoid the extensification of food production, improve the productivity of farms, build resilience, and reduce emissions. Indeed, the goals of the Paris Agreement cannot be met without transformative changes in the agriculture sector. Incorporating more ambitious, explicit, and directed actions in the agriculture sector in enhanced NDCs can help make this necessary transition.

  • This paper aims to help countries think through the process of enhancing their NDCs by including strengthened actions in the agriculture sector. It underscores the need for tailor-made approaches suited to a country’s unique set of circumstances.

  • It identifies a range of possible actions for climate change adaptation and mitigation in the agriculture sector, given the right enabling environment in place, and offers examples of how these actions can be included in an enhanced NDC.
