Published Friday, April 3, 2026
The California Department of Food and Agriculture released the final iteration of the “Climate Resilience Strategy for California Agriculture” this week. The 156-page document provides an overview of state actions underway to help the state’s agricultural communities prepare for, respond to and thrive under the increasing pressures of climate change as well as outline additional areas of opportunity for further action. The strategy was developed with input from farmers and ranchers, nonprofits, technical experts, state agencies and others to ensure that objectives, goals and actions reflect stakeholder input and needs.
Overarching goals recognized in the strategy include:
- Improve the bottom line for farmers.
- Reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
- Support economic development.
- Provide health and environmental benefits.
