The Accelerating Impact of CGIAR Climate Research for Africa (AICCRA) project works to deliver a climate-smart African future driven by science and innovation in agriculture.
AICCRA does this by enhancing access to climate information services and climate-smart agricultural technology to millions of smallholder farmers in Africa.
With better access to climate technology and advisory services—linked to information about effective response measures—farmers can better anticipate climate-related events and take preventative action that help communities better safeguard their livelihoods and the environment.
AICCRA is supported by a grant from the International Development Association (IDA) of the World Bank, which is used to enhance research and capacity-building activities by the CGIAR centers and initiatives as well as their partners in Africa.
About IDA: IDA helps the world’s poorest countries by providing grants and low to zero-interest loans for projects and programmes that boost economic growth, reduce poverty, and improve poor people’s lives.
IDA is one of the largest sources of assistance for the world’s 76 poorest countries, 39 of which are in Africa.
Annual IDA commitments have averaged about $21 billion over circa 2017-2020, with approximately 61 percent going to Africa.

Tapio-Bistrom - Mitigation of Climate Change in Agriculture Programme
1. MICCA – mitigation of climate
change in agriculture programme
Marja-Liisa Tapio-Biström
Senior Climate Change Officer
Natural Resources Management and Environment
Department
FAO
2. Outline
1. MICCA project
2. Agriculture and cc mitigation
3. Agriculture and practice based mitigation
financing
4. Conclusions
3. MICCA (Mitigation of Climate Change in
Agriculture) - Program Goal
Support of efforts for climate change mitigation
through agriculture by moving towards
carbon friendly agricultural practices and
climate smart agriculture
Residue management
4. Output
Development of emissions database and life cycle
analysis (LCA) & mitigation potentials and costs
Global economic analysis of mitigation policy options
Analysis of potential of different practices/technologies/
investments to enhance food security, adaptive
capacity and mitigation benefits
Technical support to UNFCCC negotiations and
capacity building of developing countries
Establishment of communities of practice
Development of 5 smallholder pilot projects
5. Background
Foundation is a 5 year multi-donor trust fund,
2010-2014 , 10 million US$
3.8 million US$ for 2 years by Finland
3 million for three years from Norway for
emission statistics
Involvement of different technical
departments of FAO
6. 2. AG mitigation basics
the aim of agriculture is to produce food and
other necessities and livelihoods
the demand of food will increase some 70 %
by 2050
GHG are emitted in natural production
processes
7. Basics
the main goal of agriculture is never to
mitigate climate change
a major challenge to adapt to weather
variability and in longer term changing
climate
a very large mitigation potential which should
be tapped – requires adaptation to cc
8. We need
to
transform agricultural production
systems so that they are more
productive, resilient and minimize
their net emissions per produced
units = climate smart agriculture
9. Agriculture, land use change and forest
degradation - a landscape approach
increased productivity on existing farming
areas prevents deforestation - with a caveat
– needs carrots and whips
need to develop integrated food-and energy
systems to reach food and energy security –
prevents forest degradation
10. We need climate smart agriculture
technical knowledge exists for increased
productivity, resilience and reduction of net
emissions
we need incorporation of cc issues in
agricultural policies
we need a lot more investments in agriculture
– BUT to climate smart agriculture
11. Financing for mitigation -The
question:
How could What kind of
agriculture tap mechanisms would
existing financing support integration
mechanisms? of mitigation
considerations into
small scale
farming?
12. Logic of mitigation financing
ex-post payments
rigorous MRV
additionality
separation of mitigation and adaptation
13. Specific for soil-carbon
sequestration
carbon sequestration is a long process, the
results come gradually- a saturation point
the impetus for continuing practices that
sequestrate must come from improved
productivity
14. Climate financing for agriculture
climate financing which support transformation to
climate smart agriculture
specific funds designed for agriculture and based on
the logic of farming
investment support to transform practices and tide
farmers over a period of reduced output
credit systems, support for research, extension etc.
creative combination of different financing sources
15. What about carbon markets and
small farmers – what could work?
practice based approach – monitor practices,
which are transformed to emission factors
aggregation mechanisms key for
management of transaction costs (down)
we are talking about contracts
17. MRV- Emission factors with
practice based packages
emission factor is based on practice
package, soil type, agro-ecological zone and
land use history
for ex. a package might include for coffee
leguminous shade trees, mulching, fertilizer use
instructions or compost
different tools have been developed like cool
farm tool, for monitoring purposes the
packages must be well defined
18. How do we establish the emission
factors
we need better data on emissions from
different farming practices
we need long term research sites with careful
measurements (USA OK, Africa not)
we need databases for storing the
information systematically(regional)
we need development of practice packages
(LCA)
19. Transaction costs - contracts
existing contract systems as models and
means to decrease transaction costs
for ex. contract farming, certification systems
for organic agriculture, fair-trade, c-smart
brand
credit systems – payments back in carbon?
conditionality for aid
carbon tax?
20. A bundled contract
net emissions reduction
water shed management
biodiversity
21. Remuneration for farmers
increased production per unit
reduced risk
better price
new market opportunities
investment support /credit
extension service
better varieties/animal breeds
investment for irrigation systems
tenure security
22. Barriers for adoption of cc
practices
lack of knowledge (extension system)
lack of suitable genetic material (research extensions
linkages)
lack of tenure security (long term land use right
arrangements)
lack of investments (credit, investment support)
lack of infrastructure (strategic public investment)
weak farmer organizations (supportive policies)
lack of market access
23. Buyer perspective
a ‘coffee company’ can establish a brand –
better price
can sell the carbon in off-set or voluntary
markets
off-set its own emissions
credit institutions can have public or private
funding as capital , can also sell the carbon
donors can create a climate smart
“conditionality”
24. 5. Conclusions
agriculture is part of the problem and the
solution to climate change
climate change and food security must be
addressed together –adaptation and
mitigation are linked
investments to agriculture must be climate
smart.
better data on emissions based on farming
practices must be produced
25. KNOWLEDGE GAPS 1
Lack of statistics and analysis on
emissions and mitigation potential
What kind of financing systems will enable
climate smart agriculture?
What is needed to increase mitigation and
adaptation financing links to agricultural
systems?
26. KNOWLEDGE GAPS 2
How can REDD systems be designed to be
compatible with country dev. objectives/
capacity?
What are the changes in cropping, livestock,
forestry and fishery systems and policies
needed for adaptation?
What are the implications for mitigation of
changes to achieve food security from
agricultural systems?
27. KNOWLEDGE GAPS 3
Where are synergies between food security,
adaptation and mitigation in smallholder
agriculture?
What institutions and policies are needed at
international, national and local levels to
capture potential synergies?
