This brief is based on the key messages
of a conference held on January 23, 2009 at the World Bank
to review the state of the art on 'agriculture and
climate change, investing now for a productive and resilient
future.' It is not the formal position of any one
academic institute or organization, but sets out the key
issues on: a) carbon as an integral part of sustainable
land, water and biodiversity management in developing
country agricultural landscapes and in any post-2012
framework and market mechanisms. Agricultural emissions
reductions are already eligible under the Kyoto mechanisms
for annex one (industrialized) countries; b) agricultural
soil carbon measurement, modeling, and monitoring
capabilities; c) challenges and opportunities in estimating
soil carbon stocks and changes; d) a robust and integrated
measurement and monitoring system; and e) further action
steps to ensure objective consideration of agricultural soil
carbon in post-2012 climate change solutions.
