This training session is part of the NISHATI seminar series on Sustainability Strategies and focuses on understanding and addressing the carbon footprint in agriculture. The presentation explores how agricultural activities contribute to greenhouse gas emissions and highlights key methodologies for assessing, measuring, and reducing environmental impacts within agricultural systems.
The session introduces concepts related to emission sources across the agricultural value chain, including production processes, resource use, and energy consumption. Participants gain insights into sustainable practices, innovative process design, and technological approaches that can support climate-smart agriculture and contribute to reduced carbon emissions.
This training is particularly relevant for academic staff, researchers, students, and practitioners involved in agriculture, environmental management, and sustainability studies, offering practical knowledge aligned with NISHATI’s objectives of promoting green transition and climate resilience.
