Building Climate Resilient Agriculture in Caribbean Countries: Belize

Belize's Initial Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) did not include agriculture in its mitigation targets, but it was identified as a priority sector for adaptation measures. However, implementing climate resilient agriculture (CRA) faces barriers such as a financing gap, lack of data, resource constraints, weak institutional capacity, and uncertain land tenure. Despite this, opportunities exist to build CRA and enhance climate ambition in NDCs by focusing on significant emission sources, promoting domestic growth of higher quality forage, establishing anaerobic digesters, and exploring measures beyond the farmgate

Building Climate Resilient Agriculture in Caribbean Countries: The Commonwealth of Dominica

Agriculture is the second-largest sector in Dominica, contributing between 11.5% and 15.2% of the country's GDP from 2010 to 2020. However, several barriers to implementing the country's NDCs have been identified, including limited availability of data, weaknesses in the institutional environment, inadequate financing, weak technology transfer and capacity development, insecurity of tenure, and high reliance on costly imported inputs. The opportunity to enhance climate ambition from the agriculture sector lies in reducing emissions from enteric fermentation and manure management, as well as exploring opportunities in adaptation, agroforestry, and practices beyond the farmgate

Building Climate Resilient Agriculture in Caribbean Countries: The Bahamas

The Bahamas stated adaptation priorities for the agricultural sector in its initial Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), including food security and reducing import dependency. However, as of August 2022, the country has not submitted its updated NDC. Barriers to including climate resilient agriculture (CRA) in NDCs in The Bahamas include limited access to baseline data, high costs associated with CRA technologies, and inadequate capacity for research and extension services. However, opportunities for building CRA and enhancing climate ambition in The Bahamas' NDCs exist, including reduced greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural systems and reducing the carbon footprint of the food system

Building Climate Resilient Agriculture in Caribbean Countries: Haiti

Haiti's per capita GDP is the lowest in Latin America and the Caribbean. Climate resilient agriculture (CRA) technologies face barriers to inclusion, such as limited access to credit and inadequate policy framework. Agroforestry is important for Haiti's emissions reduction targets, but faces barriers such as inadequate compensation and poorly developed markets. The agriculture sector in Haiti is a significant emitter of greenhouse gases. Combining on-farm and beyond the farmgate measures will reduce the carbon footprint of Haiti's agricultural sector and provide mitigation and adaptation co-benefits
