Cameroon: [presentation] mplementation of the NRDS and lessons learned: Climate ambitions and actions for the rice sector; one of the three priority areas for convergence between food systems, biodiversity and the climate agenda in Cameroon

RICE VALUE CHAIN
Rice production (irrigated & rain-fed) with smallscale producers, intensive rice cultivation system,
reduction of methane emissions, climate
adaptation with varieties suited to irrigation and
drought, rice-fish farming (rice + fish), digital
agriculture, development of new rice-growing
areas

Cameroon has a national system for the annual evaluation of the agricultural
sector, led by MINEPAT, which is the main framework for monitoring policies
and performance in the sector. Within this framework, the rice sector is
integrated alongside other agricultural crops. However, a review specifically
dedicated to the rice sector could be organised in parallel, in order to allow for a
more in-depth analysis of the progress, constraints and needs specific to the
implementation of the NRDS, while remaining consistent with the existing
national framework.
