OECD COP30 Virtual Pavilion

Unlocking innovation and finance for climate-resilient and biodiversity-friendly agriculture

OnlineNov 18, 2025 | 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM

Description

Innovation and technology can play a crucial role in making the agricultural sector more climate-resilient and biodiversity-friendly. Cutting-edge technologies - such as precision agriculture and remote sensing for ecosystem monitoring, together with financial innovations such as biodiversity credits and payments for ecosystem services - can help improve agricultural productivity and resilience while protecting ecosystems and ensuring the equitable sharing of benefits from natural resources. This session will bring together policymakers, industry leaders and financial institutions to discuss opportunities and barriers to improving policy and financial mechanisms that support climate-resilient and biodiversity-friendly agricultural practices. Panellists will discuss the most effective policy instruments for accelerating development and scaling up innovations in agriculture and will present practical examples of successful approaches from developed and developing countries. Participants will gain insights into how challenges related to financing and policy design can be overcome and how these innovations can be more effectively integrated into agricultural systems to enhance resilience and biodiversity outcomes.
