CAUTION!!Economic tools must beappropriate forthe problem at hand. Eco-Efficient Agriculture for the Poor 9. Overview of selected key limitations of the cost/supplycurve method* Negative costs (Not all cots were included) Strong focus on costs as selection criteria (there are other criteria) It does not include environmental and social benefit and costs Economic and technological uncertainty inherent to predicting the future Strong level of aggregation of the databases used High sensitivity relative to baseline assumptions (future) Ignoring interdependencies between measures High sensitivity to (uncertain) emission factor assumptions*Fischedick et al. 2011.

Conclusions There are a large number of potential mitigationoptions that could be implemented at the nationallevel, with highly varying degrees of emissionsreductions, and associated costs for implementationEco-Efficient Agriculture for the Poor 13. . Clear goals shouldbe set with anyemissions reductionplan or strategy,and these goals canthen be used ascriterion forprioritization Eco-Efficient Agriculture for the Poor 14. MAC curves are a useful input toevaluating priority interventions,but.should be interpreted withcaution.Incorrect use of the MAC curve forselecting interventions could lead tofailure to prioritize the mostappropriate interventions.Eco-Efficient Agriculture for the Poor 15.
