Building climate-resilient food systems in East and Southeast Asia: Vulnerabilities, responses and financing
Food system resilience to climate change is uniquely imperative for bringing Sustainable Development Goals within reach and leaving no one behind.
Temperature and low-stakes cognitive performance
This paper offers one of the first evidence in a developing country context that transitory exposure to high temperatures may disrupt low-stakes cognitive activities across a range of age cohorts.
Developing country food supply chains have been pummeled by a series (and often a confluence) of shocks over the past several decades, including the Russia-Ukraine war, COVID-19, climate shocks from hurricanes to floods to droughts, animal and pla
The political economy of reforming agricultural support policies
Agricultural support policies cost more than US$800 billion per year in transfers to the farm sector worldwide.
This brief shows how innovative financing can help cut agricultural pollution in the People's Republic of China’s Xin'an River Basin by plugging funding gaps for nature-based solutions that also mitigate against climate change.
Repositioning agricultural support policies for achieving China’s 2060 carbon neutrality goal
Agrifood systems are both a contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and an important sector for achieving China’s 2060 carbon neutrality goal and mitigating climate change.
Remarkable achievements in global food security have been made in the past several decades. Food production has grown significantly and outpaced the population growth.
The MitigatePlus: Low-Emission Food Systems Initiative aims to contribute to low-emission food systems development and reduce net annual greenhouse gas emissions (GHGE) from food systems.
La iniciativa MitigatePlus: Sistemas Alimentarios Bajos en Emisiones tiene como objetivo contribuir a la reducción de las emisiones anuales de gases de efecto invernadero (GEI) en los sistemas alimentarios.
Climate change is a truly global threat, but its impacts differ around the world. Regions and countries urgently need to identify and implement policy responses that reflect local needs and opportunities.
Rice cultivation in the NLPR regions has moved to higher latitudes.
During recent decades, agriculture has developed rapidly in China, ensuring food security and enriching residents’ diets.
Evaluating economic output and carbon footprint of different rice production systems, based on several long-term experiments.
Explores key emerging issues facing developing-country agriculture today, from rapid urbanization to rural transformation to climate change
Impacts of the central South-to-North Water Diversion on groundwater storage recovery within the context of climate variability and other policies.
