Understanding this link is vital for the formulation of effective policy responses to climate change. This paper focuses on agriculture as a primary means by which the impacts of climate change are transmitted to the poor, and as a sector at the forefront of climate change mitigation efforts in developing countries. In so doing, the paper offers some important insights that may help shape future policies as well as ongoing research in this areaPPN: PPN: 834968533Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-1-WBA | ZDB-110-WBLNo physical items for this record
