Descripción
The impact of climate change on the food and agriculture sectors continues to grow, while challenges exist for climate change mitigation. Assessing and monitoring emissions and reductions within the food and agriculture sectors is proven to be more intricate compared to other sectors. Addressing these challenges necessitates international collaboration to enhance the capacities of agricultural stakeholders in data collection and GHG appraisal, adhering to certified methodologies. This project was designed to utilise the FAO developed EX-Ante Carbon balance tool (EX-ACT) to assess the impact of IFAD implemented agriculture and forestry development initiatives on climate change mitigation, with a specific focus on the carbon balance). The primary goal was to systematically reduce Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agriculture systematically generating climate-resilient investment options for development projects and programmes.
