This national baseline inventory outlines the institutional framework for addressing climate change in Jamaica’s agriculture sector. After a brief description of the agriculture sector and potential climate change impacts, the inventory summarizes the main public policy instruments that exist at the national level that are relevant for addressing climate change within the agriculture sector. In addition, it includes an inventory of the programs and projects currently under way or recently executed, institutions and coordination mechanisms through which the agriculture-focused organizations interact with other sectors, and stakeholders that promote a low carbon, climate resilient agriculture sector within the country. Lessons learned and opportunities to develop climate smart agricultural interventions aligned with the country´s identified priorities and targets are found at the end.
