Book (stand-alone)Climate Change and Food Security: A Framework Document. Summary 2007
Also available in:
No results found.Agriculture, forestry, and fisheries are all sensitive to climate. Therefore their production processes – whether for food, feed, fibre, beverage, energy or industrial crops, or for livestock, poultry, fish or forest products – will be impacted by climate change. In general, impacts in temperate regions are expected to be positive, and those in tropical regions negative, although there is still considerable uncertainty about how projected changes will play out locally, and projected impacts coul d also be altered by adoption of risk management measures and adaptation strategies that strengthen preparedness and resilience. -

DocumentClimate Change and Food Security: A Framework Document 2008
Also available in:
No results found.Until recently, most assessments of the impact of climate change on the food and agriculture sector have focused on the implications for production and global supply of food, with less consideration of other components of the food chain. This paper takes a broader view and explores the multiple effects that global warming and climate change could have on food systems and food security. It also suggests strategies for mitigating and adapting to climate change in several key policy domains of impo rtance for food security.
