Summary in the original language of the document
This Practice Abstract about the basic benefits of organic climate farming, gives a practical recommendations and key elements.
| EPrint Type: | Practice tool |
|---|---|
| Teaser: | How agriculture can provide solutions to help mitigate and adapt to climate change. |
| What problem does the tool address?: | Agriculture is directly affected by shifts in climate, for example, through changing growing conditions or extreme weather events resulting in droughts and floods. Agriculture also contributes to GHG emissions, accounting for around 10% of emissions in the EU. |
| What solution does the tool offer?: | Agriculture can also provide solutions to help mitigate and adapt to climate change. This is often achieved through nature-based solutions that not only reduce emissions or store carbon through sequestration (climate change mitigation), but also provide additional co-benefits such as improved soil resilience, water storage capacity and biodiversity (climate change adaptation). |
