Analysis of potential mitigation in the
development project Accelerating Agriculture
Productivity Improvement (AAPI) in Bangladesh
showed a 2% reduction in greenhouse gas
(GHG) emissions, driven by urea deep
placement (UDP) and alternate wetting and
drying (AWD) in flooded rice systems. Given

The agricultural development project ACCESO
reduced greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) and
led to net carbon sequestration due to perennial
crop expansion.
Increased fertilizer use was a moderate source
of emissions that was more than offset by
reduced emissions from other ACCESOsupported
practices...
The agricultural development project, Peru
Cacao Alliance (PCA), has contributed to climate
change mitigation. Estimated carbon
sequestration from perennial crop expansion,
which was –211,467 tCO2e metric tonnes of
carbon dioxide equivalent per year, more than
offset increased greenhouse gas emis...

Pastoralist Areas Resilience Improvement
through Market Expansion (PRIME) showed a
notable decrease in emission intensity (GHG
emissions per unit of meat or milk). PRIME
enabled farmers to increase production
significantly, between 24% and 96%, which led
to a decrease in emission intensity rangin...

Analysis of the potential mitigation impacts of the
agricultural development project Chanje Lavi
Plantè in Haiti indicated that large amounts of
carbon sequestration could be achieved through
reforestation and perennial crop expansion. The
project’s strategy for watershed and landscape
restoratio...

Analysis of agricultural activities in the Better
Life Alliance (BLA) project in Zambia showed
potential reduction in greenhouse gas emissions
(GHG), mostly (85%) due to avoided savanna
degradation and conversion. The GHG impact
due to BLA’s interventions is estimated at
–902,531 tCO2e/yr, equiva...
