The report looks at how Jamaican agricultural policies affect greenhouse gas emissions from farming. It compares the emissions from different farming activities with the incentives given to farmers. The goal is to see if the products that emit the most greenhouse gases are also the ones getting the most support from policies. The findings will help understand if the policies align with the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions in Jamaica.
