- 13. Conclusions Globally coordinated efforts even with lower ambition outperform regional or sectorial approaches Significant potential for GHG abatement in the AFOLU sector with limited trade-offs: Mitigation of land use change emissions: regional mitigation hot- spots i.e. Indonesia or Congo Basin countries should be targeted SOC sequestration through improved crop- and grassland management, and restoration of organic and degraded soils Non-CO2 mitigation through structural changes & technological options Full mitigation portfolio needed to manage trade-offs with other objectives aside climate change mitigation Agri GHG Conference, Berlin, 2018
