The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations released a new
publication titled FAO Success Stories on climate-smart Agriculture. The
main message of the publication is that climate-smart approach in
agriculture will not only help prevent future problems in food security but
also holds the promise of initiating economic renewal in rural areas
stricken by hunger and poverty. The publication features case studies in
climate-smart agriculture from different countries worldwide.
"We can no longer afford to separate the future of food security from that
of natural resources, the environment and climate change - they are
inextricably intertwined and our response must be as well," said FAO Deputy
Director-General Helena Semedo.
