As a follow-up action to the 2009 High Level Conference on Climate Change in Copenhagen, the government has given a commitment to reducing GHG emissions from peat, energy, waste, forestry, industry and agriculture by 26% in 2020. As a step to achieve this, MoA has been entrusted with the task of reducing GHG emissions by 29.3 million tonnes of CO2 from agriculture and 55.6 million tonnes of CO2 from peat during 2010-14 (MoA, 2010). The potential impacts of climate change on agriculture are a major concern to the government.
