Editor’s Note: The global cocoa sector is entering a period of structural transformation. Climate volatility, regulatory enforcement, supply instability, and growing expectations for responsible sourcing are reshaping how cocoa is produced, traded, and governed across international markets. At the same time, persistent income fragility at origin continues to constrain producers’ ability to invest in climate resilience, social safeguards, and long-term farm productivity. This

In this article, discover the urgency of addressing climate change in agriculture.

Agriculture both contributes to climate change and is affected by climate change. This sector is highly dependent on the climate, with increases in temperature and carbon dioxide (CO2), changes in extreme weather, and reductions in water availability that may harm crops and reduce yields. On the other side, agriculture also contributes to climate change, and farming activities release significant amounts of methane and nitrous oxide, two powerful greenhouse gases. Climate ch

Science has established beyond doubt that the window for action on climate change is closing rapidly. Especially smallholder farmers in the Global South are especially vulnerable to climate shocks and supply chain disruptions while they grow much of the food we consume globally. Koltiva pushes data-driven services tailor-made to smallholder farmers towards Climate Change Adaptation and Climate-Smart Agriculture. In November 2022, Egypt will host the 27th Conference of the Par
