Policy brief on climate change and agriculture

World Farmers’ Organization supports through this policy brief the call to action on Climate-Smart Agriculture, offering the triple wins of increased food production, climate change mitigation and adaptation. It asserts that an incentive-based approach to climate mitigation and adaptation, as opposed to a penalty-based approach, will have a positive long-term effect on the modernization and sustainability of the agricultural sector. 

This document was published and presented at COP 17, where the COP should recommend an agriculture work program.
