The book "Family Farming and Food Systems: Carbon Removal and Just Transition", organized by CONTAG in collaboration with the Climate Observatory, discusses the challenges and opportunities of family farming in the context of the global climate crisis. The publication highlights the strategic role of family farmers in mitigating climate change, emphasizing regenerative production practices, which promote carbon sequestration and the sustainability of food systems. Family farming accounts for a large part of food production in Brazil and in the world while presenting conditions of increasing climate vulnerability and low financing for adaptation to the new climate reality. The book points out that, although small producers are responsible for relatively low emissions, they are among the most affected by extreme weather events, such as prolonged droughts, intense rainfall, and changes in temperature regimes. These changes directly impact the productivity of crops essential for maintaining food and nutritional security, as well as the rural economy, such as cassava, corn, beans, and vegetables.
