Policy briefThe role of animal health in national climate commitments 2022
Also available in:
No results found.This brief has been produced by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, in collaboration with the Global Dairy Platform (GDP) and the Global Research Alliance on Agricultural Greenhouse Gases (GRA) and with the financial support of the New Zealand Government. The FAO was approached by GDP and GRA to develop guidance following previous research on dairy cattle in order to support policy makers and livestock sector actors in implementing a process that captures the co-benefits of cattle health initiatives in their climate commitments. It provides examples in specific countries in collaboration with the World Bank and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD). This brief provides methodological guidance on the quantification of animal health interventions and their impact on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, on the basis that they deliver multiple benefits to individual farmers and society which could outweigh the costs of the intervention, particularly when considering reduced GHG emissions. -
Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetAssessing and managing climate-change impacts on plant health 2024
Also available in:
No results found.The International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) sets forth in its Strategic Framework 2020-2030, eight development agenda items to achieve its objectives. One of these agenda items is assessing and managing the impacts of climate change on plant pests. Climate change has had an increasing impact on the health of plants and agricultural crops while rising temperatures have enabled plant pests to establish in previously uninhabitable areas. IPPC is working to raise awareness of these issues, as well as enhancing the evaluation and management of risks of climate change to plant health. IPPC is also working to enhance the recognition of phytosanitary matters in the international climate change debate. This brochure serves as a resource mobilization tool to sustain these initiatives and achieve the objectives of these development agenda items.
