NDC Enhancement: Opportunities in Agriculture

This research paper by the World Resources Institute provides guidance for countries to enhance their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) by incorporating strengthened, tailor-made actions within the agriculture sector to address climate change adaptation and mitigation.

• The document argues that achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement requires transformative changes in the agriculture sector, as climate change threatens global food security and the livelihoods of hundreds of millions of people through crop loss and reduced employment opportunities, with impacts expected to worsen by 2030 and beyond.
• The paper advocates for a customized approach to NDC enhancement that reflects a country's specific circumstances and identifies various actions to improve farm productivity, build resilience, reduce emissions, and prevent the extensification of food production.
