Abstract: Agriculture and allied activities is a sector of production that is directly vulnerable to global warming, and the outcomes from Paris will be of particular relevance to the way developing countries cope with climate change in agriculture. Although agriculture was not explicitly the subject of negotiations in Paris, agriculture emerged as a key issue of concern, with respect to mitigation and adaptation, in the Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) made in the run-up to COP 21. The results from the Paris Agreement on the issue of adaptation finance will also affect agriculture and allied activities indirectly.
