Climate Disclosure and Target Setting in the Agriculture Sector

The document examines the role of Canadian financial institutions in managing climate disclosures and target setting for the agriculture sector, highlighting specific sectoral challenges and available measurement tools.

• The Canadian agriculture sector presents specific difficulties for emissions accounting due to fragmented ownership, regional differences, and the complexity of emissions from land-use changes, fertilizer use, and livestock.
• Progress has been made in reducing emissions intensity for the dairy and beef sectors in Canada.
• Financial institutions can utilize the SBTi FLAG framework and Holos tools to set targets and measure financed emissions.
