A Status Quo Review of Climate Change
and the Agriculture Sector of the Western

Chapter 13 Conclusions
Status Quo Review of Climate Change and Agriculture in the Western Cape Province
13 Conclusions
The Western Cape agriculture sector is faced with numerous difficulties and climate
change will exert its influence in the context of multiple interacting drivers and
pressure points. Adapting to the consequences of climate change and mitigating
greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture, thereby building climate resilience, will
depend as much on addressing these pressure points as on preparing for a different
climatic future.
Agriculture is highly dependent on effective risk management covering all three
sustainability components: economic, environmental and social. The risks and
impacts experienced as a result of climate change in the Western Cape and the
capacity to respond depend largely on where individual enterprises are positioned
on the scale of resource wealth or ‘capital’ (based on the sustainable livelihood
approach): human, natural, social, physical and financial capital. Weaknesses in any
of these can significantly reduce climate resilience, for example continued labour
unrest. All farms can experience exposure to variable and extreme weather, but
some are able to draw on resources and skills to ‘bounce back’ relatively unscathed,
whereas others never fully recover and become morbid or fail. Economies of scale
and diversification across commodities and agro-ecological zones renders larger
farming groups much more resilient than small and undiversified farming operations.
In order for the sector to deal with whatever climate change throws in its path whilst
continuing on a green growth path, and to seize opportunities arising from an
increasingly fluid global agricultural market, it is necessary to go beyond response
and to plan strategically (anticipatory) for the near- and mid-term future. The
Western Cape may experience pockets of increasingly marginal agriculture and
these can be identified through research, communication and monitoring. This
review has however, on a more positive note, identified many areas of opportunity.
In some cases certain agro-ecological zones will benefit from relatively benign
climate changes such as moderate warming with potentially stable or even
increased rainfall. In other cases, a shift to more resilient crop types and farming
systems (climate smart agriculture) can buffer agriculture against some aridification
without negatively impacting profitability or jobs.
This review has found that, although the agricultural value chain is known to be
extremely important in the Western Cape, almost no work has been done to assess
the impacts of climate change across the value chain. Growth opportunities in the
value chain should be well assessed against climate change risks and impacts,
including the question of limiting resources (water, energy) required for these
activities.

Chapter 13 Conclusions
Status Quo Review of Climate Change and Agriculture in the Western Cape Province
As global markets become increasingly focused on ‘food miles’ or the carbon
footprint of agricultural imports, the export segment of Western Cape agriculture has
had a good start in positioning itself to avoid future risks. The transition from
measuring to reducing the footprint now needs to be made, with the correct policy
support. Many of the mitigation options identified in this review show either the
potential for financial benefits to farmers and agri-business (e.g. carbon credits) or
they confer adaptive benefits which lead to greater production potential (e.g.
cheaper and more reliable energy, healthy soil). Either way, farmers will respond if
convinced of the benefits, and this will drive the response to reduce GHG emissions
from the agriculture sector. Some options could even become lucrative sources of
additional income for land owners, for example once independently generated
solar and wind energy (at scale) can be connected to the grid.
In conclusion, the Western Cape will likely remain a strong agricultural region, at least
in the near- to medium-term. It is likely that there will be ‘winners’ and ‘losers’ and the
sector together with government needs to identify the latter and provide support.
The next step of the SmartAgri project will be to develop a Climate Change
Response Framework and Implementation Plan. This will provide the mechanisms for
such support.
