Chief Executive Officer Servulo Baeza was part of a discussion held today at # COP27 on Promoting the use of climatic information using the Agroclimatic Technical Tables. The discussion was led by the Central American Agricultural Council and other exponents.
The Agroclimatic Technical Tables (MTA) was established for decision-making based on real technical information oriented to exchange agroclimatic data, dissemination of the results obtained and the use of methods and tools to manage risks and losses due to climate change.
The discussion focused on how this climate information becomes bulletins for producers to mitigate risks, create an early warning system, generate capacities and promote participation of more people in the sector.
In the experience of the SICA General Secretariat region, there are 37 Agroclimatic Technical Tables that are generating agroclimatic information for decision-making by producers of these, 13 are in Honduras, 19 in Guatemala and 5 in Panama, and it is expected that in the medium term they can be implemented in the other countries.
