Abstract

The agricultural sector is the central point of the climate–water–land–energy–food nexus debate, and the main task in the development of a sustainable agriculture sector is to provide food for the rising world population while reducing the environmental impact and preserving the most important natural resources for future generations. Policies to promote sustainable agriculture development or agricultural sustainability need to address interlinked climate–water–land–energy–food nexus issues. As the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) plays a major role in the agricultural sector development of European Union (EU) member states (MS), sustainable agriculture development goals supported by the CAP should also address the climate–water–land–energy–food nexus. This chapter presents a discussion on sustainable, climate-smart agriculture concepts and analyses their links with sustainable energy. Climate change mitigation and adaptation issues in agriculture are highlighted in the debate on agriculture sustainability. The implications of climate–water–land–energy–food nexus policies for the future development of the CAP are presented.
