  1. Helping smallholder farmers mitigate climate change por Wollenberg, Eva Karoline, Higman S, Seeberg-Elverfeldt, C, Neely, Constance, Tapio-Bistrom, M.L., Neufeldt, Henry

    Publicado 2012
    “…Key messages - Smallholder farmers can contribute significantly to climate change mitigation but will need incentives to adapt their practices. - Incentives from selling carbon credits are limited by low returns to farmers, high transaction costs, and the need for farmers to invest in mitigation activities long before they receive payments. - Improved food security, economic benefits and adaptation to climate change are more fundamental incentives that should accompany mitigation. - Designing agricultural investment and policy to provide up-front finance and longer term rewards for mitigation practices will help reach larger numbers of farmers than specialized mitigation interventions.…”
