The corporate sector is one of the most important contributors to the global emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. According to a representative public opinion survey 34% of Hungarian citizens believe that corporations are responsible for climate change. The business sector is motivated to take an active role in the mitigation and adaptation of climate change. As a result, the last few decades saw a marked increase in corporate measures aiming at the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, as well as other initiatives to tackle climate-related problems which result in numerous social issues. The aim of this paper is to assess whether Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) can be applied as a tool in agribusiness fostering steps towards the implementation of the climate-oriented and sustainable agriculture in Hungary. The research makes an effort to explore the role and opportunities of the Hungarian agricultural sector in adapting to climate change, it also examines the extent of the mitigation and adaptation activities appearing in the CSR portfolio of the companies and what specific measures are taken to realize them. The results of the evaluation show that climate-oriented CSR activities of the companies are relatively undeveloped, but businesses are working to reduce the impact of climate change on the usage of exercising adaptation strategies. There are several actions that can help to reduce vulnerability to the consequences of climate change in the agriculture sector. The results can support not only companies but other decision-makers decisions in climate-oriented CSR activities in agribusiness.

农业企业的企业社会责任：匈牙利气候相关的实证结果

企业部门是全球二氧化碳和其他温室气体排放的最重要贡献者之一。根据一项具有代表性的民意调查，34% 的匈牙利公民认为企业应对气候变化负责。商业部门有动力在减缓和适应气候变化方面发挥积极作用。因此，在过去的几十年中，旨在减少温室气体排放的企业措施以及解决导致许多社会问题的气候相关问题的其他举措显着增加。本文的目的是评估企业社会责任 (CSR) 是否可以用作农业综合企业促进在匈牙利实施以气候为导向的可持续农业的步骤的工具。该研究旨在探索匈牙利农业部门在适应气候变化方面的作用和机遇，还考察了公司的企业社会责任组合中出现的缓解和适应活动的程度以及为实现这些活动采取了哪些具体措施. 评估结果表明，企业以气候为导向的企业社会责任活动相对不发达，但企业正在努力减少气候变化对实施适应战略的影响。有几项行动可以帮助降低农业部门对气候变化后果的脆弱性。结果不仅可以支持公司，还可以支持其他决策者在农业综合企业中以气候为导向的企业社会责任活动中的决策。
