dc.descriptionFAO organized a roundtable with the Egyptian dairy industry in Cairo to discuss the impacts of climate change and to discuss how joint action can enable and accelerate the implementation of agrifood priorities in Egypt. The aim of the meeting was to explore how livestock and dairy sector actors are affected by climate change, what climate-friendly practices they are pursuing, what barriers exist to implementing such practices, and what kind of support is needed to encourage them to invest in climate action. The discussion aimed to survey financing options available from investors and financiers to support climate change adaptation and mitigation actions in the livestock and dairy subsectors in Egypt. Stakeholders such as producers, associations, cooperatives, feed manufacturers and companies in the dairy value chain, highlighted climate-related challenges such as the impact of heat stress on the dairy industry and livestock, as well as the increased costs due to climate-induced changes in price of input, feeds, amongst others. Private sector stakeholders also shared innovative practices that companies are adopting to mitigate emissions.This report is a summary of the discussions and recommendations from stakeholders that participated in the meeting.
