- Regional strategies to adapt production systems to cope with climate change;
- Adapting seeds and breeds through conventional and modern breeding and biotechnology to new combinations of environment and management: e.g. abiotic stress, elevated CO2 (biotechnology here is used in a broad sense, referring to marker-assisted selection, genomic selection and genetic modification methods);
- Systems of climate change-sensitive monitoring of pests and diseases and developing climate-informed crop and animal protection;
- Strategic adaptation to climate change through improved land management and land use change;
