Agriculture, Forestry, and other Land Use (AFOLU) adaptation actions represent the bulk of the updated NDC’s commitments for strengthening Ethiopia’s resilience to climate change. Ethiopia has already undertaken important adaptation efforts in these sectors, and will further expand and prioritize measures such as climate- smart agriculture; livestock diversification; drought-resistant animal breeding; rangeland management; improved drought-resistant crop varieties; crop and livestock insurance; watershed management and rehabilitation; ecosystem-based adaptation; sustainable forest management; community-based forest management and conservation; as well as afforestation and reforestation programmes.
Agriculture: “Expand the use of improved crop varieties with climate resilient characteristics” (p. 34) Agriculture: “Improve rangeland and pasture-land management diversification, including selection of drought-resistant animal breeds” (p. 34) Agriculture: “Strengthen drought and crop insurance mechanisms for climate risk management” (p. 34) Forestry: “Enhance sustainable forest management” (p. 34) Forestry: “Improve sustainable utilisation of forest resources” (p. 34)
