66% of pop. live in rural areas
42% are employed in agriculture
Context of agriculture sector (2018)

Introduction
Wood & forest 22%
- Total export turnover was
40.02 billion USD (2018).
Trade surplus: 8.72 billion
USD.
- Agriculture, LULUCF are
the cause and the affected
sector by climate change
(BUR2: 30% of the total
emission from Agri, of which
50% from rice cultivation).

5. Forest cover change, 1943-2015

6. • HHs manage 1.7 M ha of plantations
(50% of total plantations).
• Average size is 1 - 3 ha/HH.
• HHs are commonly poor and have low
investment in plantations
Forest function & ownership 2015

7. Policy to cope with climate change to agriculture
- Framework of climate change adaptation action plan
of MARD, 2008.
- Action Plan to respond to climate change to
agriculture and rural development sector (2011,
2016).
- Project on GHG emission reduction in agriculture
and rural areas until 2020.
- At present, reviewing and updating NDC, NAP in
agriculture sector

ACTION PLAN FOR CLIMATE CHANGE
RESPONSE; PLAN FOR PARIS AGREEMENT
IMPLEMENTATION
ON CLIMATE CHANGE

11. • Change/shift cropping patterns and schedules, develop and use tolerant/resistant
to climate change conditions in different ecological zones seed varieties
Different varieties: rice, shrimp, etc.)
• Select, upgrade and modernize crop, forestry and livestock production
techniques which increase resilience and may also mitigate GHG emissions as
co-benefit.
• Utilize good agricultural practices such as: fertilizer and pesticide saving
measures; water saving measures; minimizing time for land preparation,
intercropping of cash crops with leguminous trees, fruit trees etc.; effective
treatment of animal waste, biogas; scaled-up CSA practices such as agro-
forestry, mangrove forest-aquaculture, rice-fish/shrimp etc;
Priorities for Agriculture and RD

12. • Harmonize production standards and regulations to ensure that complete value
chains from agriculture production to waste management, increase resilience to
CC effects.
• Development of accessible early warning climate information to farmers
• Balancing between structured and non-structured measures in investment.
• Mobilizing private sector investment/financing in the sector
Priorities for Agriculture and RD

13. Forestry sector priorities
Forest cover target: 45% (16 Mha) by 2030
Plantations: shift from wood chip to large, sawn-
timbers; increase of value added; increase of
domestic wood supply
Natural forests: no logging; enrichment, restoration;
promote produce, marketing Non-timber products
CC M & A: restoration of coastal forests; emission
reduction & removal enhancement (NDC, REDD+,
etc)
Certification: national scheme; standards (FM, CoC);
wood legality; group certification for small growers
