Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is being widely promoted as a solution for food insecurity and climate change adaptation in food systems of sub-Saharan Africa, while simultaneously reducing the rate of greenhouse gas emissions. Governments throughout Africa are writing policies and programs to...

This report is aimed at readers who seek to build economic evidence in support of the inclusion of actions on agriculture in climate change plans and programmes, particularly at the national level under the umbrella of nationally determined contributions (NDCs) to the December 2015 Paris Agreemen...


Vermeulen, Sonja J.Richards, MerylPinto, Alex deFerrarese, DinoLäderach, PeterLan, LeLuckert, MartyMazzoli, EnricoPlant, LauraRinaldi, RobertoStephenson, Jim[The Economic Advantage: Assessing the value of climate-change actions in agriculture]The Economic Advantage: Assessing the value of climate-change actions in agriculture

Climate change impacts on agriculture have become evident, and threaten the achievement of global food security. On the other hand, the agricultural sector itself is a cause of climate change, and if actions are not taken, the sector might impede the achievement of global climate goals. Science-p...

Coffee is grown in more than 60 tropical countries on over 11 million ha by an estimated 25 million farmers, most of whom are smallholders. Several regional studies demonstrate the climate sensitivity of coffee (Coffea arabica) and the likely impact of climate change on coffee suitability, yield,...


Läderach, PeterRamírez Villegas, JuliánNavarro-Racines, Carlos E.Zelaya, CarlosMartínez Valle, Armando IsaacJarvis, Andy[Climate change adaptation of coffee production in space and time]Climate change adaptation of coffee production in space and time

Coffee, one of the most heavily globally traded agricultural commodities, has been categorized as a highly sensitive plant species to progressive climatic change. Here, we summarize recent insights on the coffee plant’s physiological performance at elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide concentratio...


Damatta, Fábio M.Rahn, EricLäderach, PeterGhini, RaquelRamalho, José C.[Why could the coffee crop endure climate change and global warming to a greater extent than previously estimated?]Why could the coffee crop endure climate change and global warming to a greater extent than previously estimated?

Climate change will cause geographic range shifts for pollinators and major crops, with global implications for food security and rural livelihoods. However, little is known about the potential for coupled impacts of climate change on pollinators and crops. Coffee production exemplifies this issu...

Stomatal regulation is a key process in the physiology of Coffea arabica (C. arabica). Intrinsically linked to photosynthesis and water relations, it provides insights into the plant's adaptive capacity, survival and growth. The ability to rapidly quantify this parameter for C. arabica under diff...

Adapting to climate risks is central to the goal of increasing food security and enhancing resilience of farming systems in East Africa. We examined farmers’ attitudes and assessed determinants of adaptation using data from a random sample of 500 households in Borana, Ethiopia, Nyando, Kenya, Hoi...

Climate change will have serious repercussions for agriculture, ecosystems, and farmer livelihoods in Central America. Smallholder farmers are particularly vulnerable due to their reliance on agriculture and ecosystem services for their livelihoods. There is an urgent need to develop national and...
