Scope and issues•Variability of weather variability of agricultural production•Climate change exacerbates
impact •Frequency of extremes increases

Likely impacts
•Carbon dioxide and warming + -
•Changing production patterns, crop and animal distribution and yields
• Increased vulnerability

Remedial Action in Agriculture
• Reduction of agricultural emissions• Carbon storage in vegetation and
soils; conservation agriculture• More energy efficiency• Substitution of fossil fuels by
biofuels• Adaptation to foreseen changes

Kyoto Protocol CoP 3 Kyoto, 12/1997
Objective: Reduction of GHG
in 39 countries by at least 5 % (level 1990)
in 2008-2012

After COP 6Inclusion of LULUCF
Forests and soils as sinks
Supplementarity

Next steps ?Informal Talks
COP 7 in November COP 6/2 in July
Rio + 10 in 2002

Role of FAO
• Repository of data• Information and advice• Custodian of methods, models
• Neutral forum
