1 Climate Change and Food Security Joachim von Braun International Food Policy Research Institute IPC and ICTSD Seminar Climate Change, Agriculture, and Trade: Promoting Policy Coherence Washington DC, October 29, 2009
2 Big picture of climate change policy challenges
3 Challenges of getting to a global climate change regime Questions of global climate justice, historic liability, equal rights Equitable cost-sharing for mitigation and adaption (per capita) The Kyoto Protocol has large shortcomings A more efficient global regime on basis of int l cooperation is needed
4 17 Gt of reductions below BAU required by 2020 for a 450ppm pathway with (40-60% chance of 2 degrees) Global GHG emissions, Gt CO 2 e per year Reference pathway BAU ppm pathway (with overshoot) Change relative to Source: McKinsey Global GHG Abatement Cost Curve v2.0; Houghton; IEA; US EPA; den Elzen, van Vuuren; Project Catalyst analysis
5 Proposed solutions Commitment by int l community to set climate change mitigation as a priority Equitable burden sharing Deterring sanction system against free-riders Global carbon price establishment Aggressive emission reductions by industrialized countries Major funding for technology cooperation and transfer Slower emissions growth in emerging economies Monitoring and verification Source: GES 2009.
6 Dealing with agriculture by appropriate integration into a Copenhagen agreement and beyond
7 Taking a dual perspective on climate change and food security 1. Address climate change in the context of food security 2. Address food security in the context of climate change Not each in isolation! This way find common grounds between developing and developed countries
8 Agriculture and climate change: part of the problem and the solution Agriculture part of the problem: 14% of CO 2 emissions Agriculture part of the solution: Biomass; CO 2 sequestration; soil management (source: IPCC 2007)
9 CO 2 emissions by country and sector Source: World Bank and IEA 2007; USEPA 2005; Houghton 2006.
10 Location-specific Biological and Socioeconomic Modeling is Critical Climate change brings location-specific changes - in precipitation, temperature and variability to - local agronomic and market conditions Modeling challenge Reconcile - limited resolution of macro-level economic models with - crop model detail Result - More realistic modeling of climate change effects (biological and economic) on global/regional agriculture Source: Nelson, IFPRI, 2009

18 Trade may Trade promotes coordination of environmental policies - Provide opportunities for linkage between environmental and trade concessions - Facilitate implicit side payments - Grant countries direct leverage over other countries production - Instill perception of shared goals Example: Water pollution is lower in rivers shared between countries with more trade (analysis using data from the UN Global Environmental Monitoring System) Source: Ringler, Biswas, Cline (eds.) 2009.
19 The ongoing policy debate and potential actions
20 Agriculture-related terms in the Bonn conference negotiating text* June 2009 *Revised Negotiating text June 22, Source: Global Donor Platform for Rural Development 2009.
21 What costs agricultural adaptation? IFPRI Model Assumptions 60% increase in all crop yield growth over baseline 30% increase in animal numbers growth 40% increase in production growth of oils and meals 25% increase in irrigated area growth 15% decrease in rainfed area growth 0.15% increase in basin water efficiency by 2050 Source: Nelson et al. (IFPRI) 2009.
22 Additional annual agricultural adaptation funding required: +US$ 7 billion Expenditure to counteract climate change effects on child nutrition by 2050 (million 2000 US$) Sub-Saharan Africa South Asia Developing countries Agric. research ,316 Irrigation expansion Irrigation efficiency ,158 Rural roads 2, ,737 Total 3,053 1,531 7,118 The mix of investments differs by region Source: Nelson et al. (IFPRI) 2009.
23 Adaptation for increasing agricultural productivity Agricultural research, water management, and rural investment - Crop breeding for both irrigated and rainfed agriculture - Biotechnology for stress tolerant materials to address drought- and heat-tolerance, salinization - Water harvesting, minimum tillage, integrated soil fertility management etc. - Rural infrastructure investment to improve access to markets, risk insurance, credit, inputs Source: Rosegrant (IFPRI) 2009.
24 Agricultural mitigation policy Include carbon sequestration from soil carbon in global carbon trading system Fund development and implementation of low-cost monitoring systems Allow innovative payment mechanisms and support for novel institutions for agricultural mitigation Create institutional innovations linking communities to global markets e.g. regional centers for carbon trading Source: Rosegrant (IFPRI) 2009.
25 Developing countries require different types of support for mitigation activities Developing country abatement cost curve, 2020 (up to costs of 60/t) Cost of abatement / ton * Energy efficiency in buildings, transportation and industry Support to overcome barriers (best practice info, capacity building,loans) Forestry Agriculture Industry Power Transport Buildings Agriculture and forestry Power supply Support to compensate incremental costs, e.g. through offset market or grants Technology follows investment Abatement potential Gt CO 2 e Demos / investment in emerging technologies Support to compensate incremental costs (grants) and international cooperation Source: McKinsey, 2009
26 Enhance market incentives to realize environmental and social benefits Develop and promote markets for carbon payments at appropriate scale and speed What is the role of CO 2 trading? - partly complementary - partly competitive Only 3-4% of carbon trading sourced from agriculture, land use change, agroforestry and forestry
27 Tradeoffs and win-wins Tradeoffs occur between GHG emissions of agric. and related mitigation action: - CO 2 sequestration in the short term leads to competition with food-fuel-fiber production and food security risks - But GMOs may reduce tradeoffs Dynamics and potential win-wins: - If agric R&D investments have higher share - As payments for environmental services increase agric. productivity in the long term
28 A technology transfer package for Copenhagen (New Delhi conference Oct 22-23, 2009) enhanced technological cooperation, joint research and development of new technologies and products; periodic assessment, evaluation and expert guidance on new and emerging technologies; technology financing, in particular public financing; Public goods rather than IPR improve access to and deployment of technologies. Copy Green Revolution CGIAR - as a model for research collaboration on climate change technologies: creation of an international network of Climate Innovation Centers (CICs) as vehicles for enhancing technology innovation and capacity building in developing countries
29 The broad directions for food security conscious climate change policy 1. An efficient and fair global climate regime is needed 2. The food security effects of climate change must be important determinants for policy; 3. Investment for agriculture s GHG neutrality must not be delayed 4. Invest in adaptation in developmental ways; $ 7 billn. p.a. 5. Climate stress requires to more open trade 6. Carbon market opportunities for agriculture must not undermine food security 7. Combining agric. carbon market participation with sound agricultural R&D promises win-win
