FFAR award amount   $100,000

Total award amount   $200,000

Location   Palmira, Colombia

Grantee Institution   International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)

CIAT researchers are identifying and assessing the likelihood of future extreme weather events and their potential impacts on yields and quality of key crops in North America, South Africa, Egypt and Brazil.

Grant Outcome

This project developed and launched the Open Climate Resilience Platform, an open-access tool that helps farmers, agribusinesses and food companies identify climate risks to major crops and evaluate adaptation strategies. By synthesizing existing research including climate projections, crop-impact analysis and practical adaptation recommendations across six countries and multiple key crops, the research enables supply chain companies to conduct more informed planning and make investments that benefit farmers by improving yield resilience through targeted conservation practice adoption. The platform has already been adopted by companies and sustainability organizations to guide regenerative agriculture programs, strengthen supply chain resilience and support climate adaptation efforts in the U.S. and globally.
