The Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA) has recently published analyses that look at how agriculture was included in the Intended National Determined Contributions (INDCs) of the 15 countries in the Caribbean Region and of the 17 countries in Latin America that have submitted their INDCs by early April.
The large majority of countries prioritized actions in agriculture as part of their plan, demonstrating the importance of climate action to enhance resilience in the sector, and the significant contributions the sector can make towards mitigation.
