Knowledge Review - Climate-Smart Agriculture in developing countries: definition – practices – adoption
The Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change states that increasing weather and climate extreme events have exposed millions of people to acute food insecurity and reduced water security, with the largest adverse impacts in developing countries. Adaptation is therefore a necessity, especially in the agricultural sector. In this context “climate-smart agriculture” has gained momentum as an approach to transform agricultural systems
The objective of this knowledge review is to provide policymakers and practitioners with key knowledge about climate-smart agriculture (CSA). The knowledge contained in this review has been extracted, organised, and synthesized from a selection of 60 recent publications on the subject. The focus is on smallholder agriculture in developing countries.
