Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities

U. S. Department of Agriculture

No 391411, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: There is a strong and growing interest among American consumers for climate-smart products. USDA has invested $3.03 billion dollars in 135 pilot projects nationwide to connect customers to farmers, ranchers, and private landowners implementing climate-smart production practices on working lands to build soil health, sequester carbon & enhance productivity. By providing producers with the tools they need to combat the challenges of climate change and building market opportunities for the resulting commodities, USDA is positioning American agriculture as a global leader in delivering voluntary, incentives-driven, market-based climate solutions. This report provides an overview of Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities’ progress.
