“…CRGE has ambitious commitments in its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), to "climate-proof" Ethiopia’s Growth and Transformation Plan (GTP) by curbing its GHG emissions by more than half by 2030, while also building resilience against climate risks and future climate change. As set forth in the second GTP, reaching this goal will require boosting agricultural productivity by introducing climate-smart technologies and practices that include integrated watershed management, conservation agriculture, as well as nutrient and crop management across agroecosystems and landscapes with the potential to reduce GHG emissions by 40 Mt CO2e in 2030 (CRGE, 2011).…”
