The dual role of agriculture in the climate crisis
Climate change is one of the biggest challenges humanity faces today, and agriculture sits at the center of this crisis.
On one hand, climate change is the single biggest disruptor of global agriculture. On the other hand, agriculture itself is a significant contributor to the crisis. Transforming agricultural practices to be sustainable, climate-friendly, and responsible is a top priority for governments, multilateral organizations, and agri-food businesses around the world.
