Linking local agriculture to national policy by studying climate change economics in Colombia
Participatory research, using the FAO’s Aquacrop model, is investigating crop yields under several climate change scenarios, and feeding the findings in to a national, cross-sectoral economic model. Stakeholders, from farmers to national decision makers, are using the same model to guide their decisions. The project will contribute to a National Adaptation Plan for Colombia, and be scaled across farming communities.
