Climate Academy Guide : Part 3 - Soil Management

Around half of the total amount of carbon on a farm could be stored in the soil. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the carbon stored is not released into the air. This video provides tips on practices that coffee farmers can adopt to mitigate emissions from the soil.
About the Climate Academy Guide
This video is the third of an 8-part series adopted from the Climate Academy Guide (fairtradeafrica.net/manuals/), a manual developed by Fairtrade Africa with the support of Fairtrade Netherlands, the Dutch Postcode Lottery, and the expert input of Coffee Research Institute. The guide is designed to provide practical information, equipping farmers with skills and insights to conduct environmental risk and opportunity assessments on their farms, identify the extent to which they are exposed to the effects of climate change, and further determine the most effective approaches to mitigate the impact. The contents of the Climate Academy Guide may be adopted to teach coffee farmers around the world about climate change adaptation and mitigation.
