PLANO DE AGRICULTURA DE BAIXA EMISSÃO DE CARBONO
Nationally Determined Contributions
Brazilian NDC is an economy wide commitment, which is aimed at
achieving sustainable development with climate change as a central
issue.
Brazil has committed to reduce its GHG emissions bellow its 2005 levels
in 37% by 2025; and in 43% by 2030
A strong emphasis is given to Adaptation, as a critical element for the
global effort to tackle climate change and its effects
The main responsibility of the agriculture sector is FOOD SECURITY,
and it is committed to its share of responsibilities: Our 2010-20 NAMAs
results show that effective transformational change is possible.

PLANO DE AGRICULTURA DE BAIXA EMISSÃO DE CARBONO
Agriculture in the NDCs?
Is up to nationals, in any case, INTEGRATED LANDSCAPE APPROACH (ILA)
Conservative agriculture and soil management and conservation is one
element
Carbon is and intrinsic part of a living system, and an important element of
agroecosystems. Evaluating carbon presence (through emissions or storage),
is one important indicator, hence, SOC , among others
Strong public polcies and effective long-term goals can only be achieved if an
integrated approach is considered, and all the elements are taken into
account, knowing that is not one single element or one single sector that is the
reason of the problem, neither will it be the solution.
