Agriculture is critical to Asia and the Pacific’s development. But it also has a massive environmental impact and contributes to climate change. As the region’s climate bank, ADB will play an important role in unlocking long-term investment to help develop greener and more resilient agriculture practices to address the climate crisis. 

Martin Lemoine, Head of ADB’s Private Sector Agribusiness Unit, outlines how agribusiness can help to reduce the impact of climate change if proactive, innovative practices are embraced.
