World Bank sees gains for climate and economy if ag policies are revised (Successful Farming) 

January 29, 2022


Successful Farming published an article that focused on conclusions from the IFPRI and World Bank report,  ‘Repurposing agricultural policies and support: options to transform agriculture and food systems for better health of people, economies and planet. According to the report, if governments encourage climate-smart farming, they would see an increase in agricultural productivity and a sizable reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by agriculture.” The most effective repurposing, said the World Bank, would require government incentives and investment in technologies that reduce emissions and increase productivity to meet the rising global demand for food.
