Policy Brief: Cost-Benefit Analysis of Climate-Resilient Coffee Production

The Private Investment for Enhanced Resilience project (PIER), funded by the Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs in the U.S. Department of State (DOS) conducted a cost-benefit analysis of climate-resilient coffee production in Indonesia. Building on several activities PIER implemented to address the challenges of promoting climate-resilient value chains, including coffee, Winrock International’s PIER team collaborated with University of Wisconsin-Madison graduate students to better understand how climate change impacts (such as drought, increased temperature, and rainfall variability) contribute to food and income insecurity of smallholder farmers worldwide.
