Myanmar Climate-Smart Agriculture Strategy, 2015

Myanmar's Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) Strategy seeks to optimize the benefits and minimize the negative trade-offs across food security, agricultural development and climate change adaptation and mitigation. The key elements of CSA include:

• Food security by increasing agricultural productivity.
• Resilience of agricultural systems through adaptation.
• Mitigation by reducing greenhouse gas emission or enhancing carbon sequestration and managing interfaces with other land use management. 

The Myanmar CSA Strategy encompasses the development of technical, policy and investment conditions to achieve a sustainable agricultural development for food security and nutrition through climate-resilient and sustainable agriculture. Myanmar has committed to apply CSA to contribute to regional food security and environmental protection. Myanmar’s CSA also aims to provide context and analysis for addressing agriculture in international climate negotiations to better inform climate negotiators and other stakeholders by identifying options and unpacking issues of interest.
