Key messages
Improve production security:!110% increase in national coffee harvest!"Reduce GHG emissions:!26 million metric tons of CO2e reductions *!"Adapt to climate change:!40% of coffee plants renovation with resilient variety!90% of crops with shade trees!!
* preliminary data!

Central America’s economy is extremely vulnerable to climate change. Adaptation in the agriculture sector is urgent.!

“Our analysis demonstrates that climate change is already having adverse impacts over the production of some crops. As a result… accumulated losses will be approx. 4% of 2007 GDP when using a discount rate of 4%... however these grow to 8-12% when a 2% societal discount rate is employed… It is fundamental to adopt measures to reduce the causes of climate change, however perhaps it’s more important that the countries implement adaptation measures.”
Today, Costa Rica’s agriculture sector presents a significant opportunity for greenhouse gas mitigation.!

To 2030, globally, largest abatement levers are in power and forestry. However, Costa Rica’s levers lie in transport, agriculture and waste.!

In today’s period of reduced budgets, agriculture and waste NAMAs offer significant opportunities at low capital intensities. !

Costa Rica has a history of being a “laboratory” for tesCng naConal environmental programs
A good example is the “Payment for Environmental Services” (PSA) mechanism

We would like to take a “climate-smart” approach for the coffee NAMA to address interlinked issues of population, climate and food security.!

In our “climate smart” approach, we will optimize mitigation actions by deriving co-benefits for production and adaptation. !

Current!situation !
10% of CR’s GHG emissions come from coffee’s N2O derived use!
2,2 million sacs in 90,000 Ha (2010-2011);d,!95% of the coffee plants are have low production, age exceeds the shelf life!
On 2010-2011, weather events affected the coffee production: loss of 150,000 sacs !
Actions!
Accurate fertilization;!Effective use of fertilizers; Energy efficiency; Cogeneration; and Wastewater management!
Coffee plants renovation!!
Management of the shade trees; !Genetic improvements; and!Plants renovation!
Results (2035)!Potential reduction of26 million tCO2e (2015 – 2035)!!
110% increase in national coffee harvest (compared to 10’-11’)"
40% of coffee plants renovation with resilient variety!90% of crops with shade trees !
We have indentified 7 mitigation actions focused on the highest GHG-intensive stages of coffee’s life cycle: farms and mills. !

A “climate-smart” coffee sector can serve as a model to transition the Costa Rican agricultural sector towards national green economy goals.!
