Actors and thinkers of globalization
How can we, leaders of G20 industries and leaders in science, design a sustainable pathway to combat climate change while ensuring the prosperity of farmers and the agribusiness ?

Our food system: a critical driver of climate change
Agriculture-related activities are 24% of
global greenhouse gas emissions (2010)
Tomorrow: 50% of emissions to feed ourselves ? “Business as usual” (BAU)
agriculture emissions would comprise ~50% of allowable emissions to achieve a 2°C world

• Keep flooded for 1st 15 days and at flowering
• Irrigate when water drops to 15 cm below the surface
