    One hundred scientists, economists and policy experts participated in a three-day expert meeting (EM) to engage in a high-level, globally oriented, and multidisciplinary scoping of topics that climate change to land use and food security. The EM was structured around five themes: climate impacts and human-directed drivers of land change and linkages to food security; mitigation and adaptation options; and policies for resource management, smallholder resilience, mitigation and food and nutrition security. The present report offers a comprehensive synthesis of the EM findings and conclusions reflecting the collective view participants and external reviewers. The report is a valuable source for the IPCC above-mentioned Special Report, especially in relation to food security, as well to researchers and policy makers concerned with the policy implication of food security in relation to post-Paris climate action and Agenda 2030.

    Vegetables, together with soybean, provide most of the nutrient rich foods to a large number of people at risk of chronic undernutrition in the country Cooperative farmers grow a wide variety of vegetables, including spinach, Chinese cabbage, red pepper, tomato, cucumber, radish, onion, lettuce, eggplant, and mushroom, both on farm and in a protected environment, namely greenhouses and plastic tunnels Data on the production of vegetables in national farm production in the country are not officially reported Using field level data on a sample of cooperative farms that received FAO emergency assistance to restore production in the wake of floods in 2016 and drought in 2017 it is estimated that about 128 700 ha of cropped area are under vegetables With an average yield of 18 tonnes / vegetables production in the country is estimated at 2 3 million tonnes annually.
