Food security and agricultural mitigation in developing countries: options for capturing synergies

The paper explores potential synergies between food security, adaptation and climate change mitigation from land-based agricultural practices in developing countries, which could help to generate the multiple benefits needed to address the multiple demands placed on agriculture. It indicates promising mitigation options with synergies, options that involve trade-offs, possible options for required financing, and possible elements in designing country implementation processes.

Chapter 2.3 deals specifically with changes in agricultural practices and their impact on adaptation/food security.
