Farming Smarter: How Cover Crops and Integrated Systems Deliver Climate Action
The Consortium of International Agricultural Research Centres (CGIAR) | Source | Report |
Integrated farming systems using cover crops offer immediate, practical solutions to build soil carbon and stabilize yields under climate stress. This CGIAR issue brief emphasizes that these practices should be formally embedded into Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) to operationalize Global Stocktake guidance. Scaling these systems requires concessional finance for seed systems and the deployment of digital advisory services to reach smallholders in regions like sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. Furthermore, the brief highlights that a just transition must ensure inclusive access for women and youth, empowering them as delivery agents for climate-resilient agriculture.
