Partnering with Agribusinesses to Boost Climate Resilience of Smallholder Farmers in Asia and the Pacific

26 November 2021

Agriculture is one of the most affected sectors by climate change. About $350 billion of investments are needed annually to transform the food and agriculture system to become greener and more resilient. Alongside its investment programs on agribusinesses, PSOD’s Agribusiness Investment Team provides technical assistance and training to farmers on climate-resilient agricultural practices.

This session provided an opportunity for staff to learn about capacity building on climate resilience for smallholder farmers in Asia from agribusiness partners, consultants, and technical assistance donors.
