Joining hands with businesses to scale up climate conscious agriculture
Format
Why implementing a systems-wide approach and boosting private sector engagement in agriculture and land-use is part of the climate solution.
While responsible for two thirds of global agricultural GDP (Gross Domestic Product), Asian agriculture is one of the most vulnerable economic sectors in the world to climate change. With its diverse landscape and livelihoods, sheepherders in Mongolia, rice farmers in Thailand and agri-businesses across the key value chains unarguably feel climate impact in the region. Although climate governance in agriculture is picking up through robust plans and policies, implementation is lagging. A joint multi-sectoral approach that engages the private sector can help expedite climate action and scale up ambition in agriculture and land use.
