REGISTER NOW -- AgMIP Conference on ‘Making Climate-Smart Agriculture Work’
Erik Mencos Contreras
AgMIP Conference - Making Climate-Smart Agriculture Work
May 24-26, 2022 | Online
With support from NIFA, AgMIP is convening an online conference to explore how science, data and modeling can support climate-smart agricultural practices and the development of climate-smart commodities. Conference speakers and participants will highlight emerging USDA programs addressing climate change and agriculture, listen to stakeholder farmers and environmentalists, and consider the current state of science regarding soil carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas emissions and how they relate to agricultural practices.
The conference will provide a “deep dive” into how combining models at farm and regional scales can improve our predictive abilities, extend available climate and crop data, and create tools to thoughtfully explore “what if” land management scenarios.
The conference will also consider how we can develop climate-smart agricultural practices that are sustainable and economically viable, examine how emerging data technologies can be integrated into foundation models and decision-making frameworks, and to explore how we can build new collaborations and partnerships to support climate-smart agricultural practices.
