This brief will present a comprehensive analysis of the panorama of public incentives related to agricultural methane abatement currently in force in Brazil. It assesses the main instruments and policies including the Safra plan, the ABC+/RenovAgro plan, the Brazilian Sustainable Taxonomy, the Ecoinvest programme, the Brazilian sovereign debt agenda, the decree on the National Programme of Conversion of Degraded Pastures into Sustainable Agricultural and Forestry Production Systems (PNCPD), as well as commitments made in the climate plan and the nationally determined contribution (NDC), highlighting how each addresses practices and technologies aimed at mitigating methane emissions in the agricultural sector.
The analysis will focus on the objectives, guidelines and mechanisms implemented by these initiatives, seeking to highlight their alignment with the country’s climate goals and their effectiveness in promoting sustainable practices in the context of agriculture.
