Although being a vital sector, agriculture contributes significantly to climate change through greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, agriculture is highly exposed to climate change, as farming activities directly depend on climatic conditions. Climate change also increases forest disturbances and occurrence of invasive species. CTCN brings together stakeholders to provide technical assistance to mitigate and adapt to these change, through a combination of well-established and innovative technologies. Below you will find related publications, partners, CTCN technical assistance, technologies and other information for exploring this topic further.
