Abstract: Carbon emission is the major cause of global climate change and a seriously constraint for sustainable development. Agriculture, characterized by its low emission, high carbon productivity and high sequestration capacity, is uniquely positioned with tremendous competitive advantage for low carbon development and thus should be reconsidered as a strategic industry in national development. At the national level, agriculture plays an important role in low carbon development as a low-carbon, ecological, and technological intensive industry. Low-carbon agriculture would not only help improve environmental quality but should also enhance food productivity and quality. The renewable energy production and carbon capture, use and storage (CCUS) application in agriculture can make a great contribution to the objective of national low-carbon development and the benefit of rural economy.

Key words: low-carbon agriculture, greenhouse gas emission reduction, carbon emission, national development strategy
