Ambitious GHG mitigation opportunities and challenges in the agriculture sector
(German Environment Agency, 2025)
Climate change is a major threat to ecosystems and livelihoods, requiring urgent cuts in greenhouse gas emissions. Food systems, including crop and livestock production, contribute significantly to global emissions. Monocultures and intense farming worsen biodiversity loss, pollution, and water stress. Transitioning to plant-based diets and adopting better farming practices is essential to meet the Paris Agreement goals. This report shares findings from the project “Ambitious GHG Reduction in Agriculture: Analysis of Sustainable Potentials in Selected Priority Countries" (FKZ 3720 41 504 0) which identifies key options for reducing emissions in agriculture, implementation barriers, and solutions. It emphasizes the importance of tailored approaches and the role of agriculture in climate targets, sustainable development, and food security.
