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...

An analysis of the potential climate change
mitigation impact of the project entitled
Agricultural Development and Value Chain
Enhancement Activity II (ADVANCE II) in Ghana
shows that an approximate reduction in
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 100% will
be possible. When project targets are ach...

The Rwanda Dairy Competitiveness Program II
(RDCP) was estimated to have resulted in a
strong decrease in the GHG emissions intensity
of milk production, defined as the GHG
emissions per unit (liter) of milk produced.
Extensive cattle production systems reduced
their GHG emission intensity by a...

What does the future hold for food security and adaptation to climate change in East Africa? What if there was concerted action towards political and economic integration? What if the opposite happened, and the region became even more fragmented, with people in power focusing on their own narrow ...
Agriculture is well represented in Parties’ adaptation and mitigation strategies as communicated in their Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). There is much attention to conventional agricultural practices that...
