Department of Agriculture's 2021 Federal Climate Adaptation Plan

The Department of Agriculture's 2021 Federal Climate Adaptation Plan is a national cross-sectoral action plan of the United States. Its main objectives are to build resilience across landscapes with investments in soil and forest health; increase outreach and education to promote adoption and application of climate-smart adaptation strategies; broaden access to and availability of climate data at regional and local scales for USDA Mission Areas, producers, land managers, and other stakeholders; increase support for research and development of climate-smart practices and technologies to inform USDA and help producers and land managers adapt to a changing climate; and leverage the USDA Climate Hubs as a framework to support USDA Mission Areas in delivering adaptation science, technology, and tools.
