This document discusses climate-smart agriculture which aims to increase food security, adaptation to climate change, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It notes that agriculture contributes significantly to emissions but can also be part of the solution. Key points made include that climate-smart practices already exist but more investment is needed, smallholders require support to transition, and available financing is insufficient. Agriculture mitigation is not just about soils but also vegetation, and emission reductions per unit of food produced will make a major contribution. Monitoring does not need to measure everything but focus on strategic levels and proxies to help implement policies. Links between agriculture, forests, and REDD+ are also discussed.
