The International Model for the
Policy Analysis of Agricultural
Commodities and Trade (IMPACT) is
a suite of linked biophysical and
economic models
• Estimation of the effects of
climate change on agriculture
• Policy development for climate-
resilient agricultural food
systems
• Assessment of alternative policy
scenarios as adaptation to
climate change

Policies and Investment Strategies
Technical response to climate change
I. Investment in Technology Development
 investment in agricultural R&D
 R&D for foodcrops – Increased crop productivity by 20% in 15 years – to 2040
 R&D for livestock – Increased livestock and poultry productivity by 20% in 15 years – to
2040
 Irrigation infrastructure to support the adoption of hi-yield and climate
resilient crop technologies
 Irrigation development – application of modern irrigation technology, including drip irrigation,
and precision irrigation – to increase irrigation area coverage by 30% in 15 years – to 2040
 Combination of three
Policies and Investment Strategies
Institutional response to climate change
II. Investment in Rural Enterprise Development
This involves the mobilization of farming communities to organize into rural
business enterprises – encouraged and supported by the government
through:
1) 100% expansion (doubling) of irrigated agricultural land in 15 years to 2040
2) 30% expansion of animal farms in 15 years to 2040
3) RD and E support of 20% productivity increase for crops and livestock
4) Investment in post-harvest processing, transportation, storage and market
information services – through Private-Public-Partnership, i.e., public partnership with
the community-based rural enterprises. (These lead to more efficient value-chain
operations, reduced marketing costs, minimized wastes and losses)
