More than 500 million USD will soon be invested in climate-smart agriculture (CSA) programmes in sub-Saharan Africa. Improving smallholder farm management is the core of most of these programmes. However, there has been no comprehensive information available to evaluate how changing agricultural ...

Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) has been promoted since 2011 to increase productivity, improve resilience to climate variability and change and reduce greenhouse gas emission, where feasible, in farming systems globally and especially in Sub-Saharan Africa. CSA is unique, by comparison, to some o...

Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is a systematic approach to agricultural development. It intends to address climate change and food security challenges simultaneously across levels, from field management to national policy, with goals to 1) improve food security and agricultural productivity, 2) ...

Farmers rarely apply CSA technologies in isolation and there is a strong demand for evidence about which bundles of practices work together to enhance outcome performance. The ERA database brings together thousands of African CSA studies giving us unprecedented power to explore trade-offs when bu...

Initial and sustained use of Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) often hinges on the economic costs, benefits and risks of the new management practice, as well as farmer’s socio-economic endowments. However, data showing the economic performance of CSA is rarely presented. Incomplete or missing infor...

Climate change will affect the ability to deliver not only the quantity but also the type and quality of food necessary for nutritious diets. Global and regional 'climate-smart agriculture' initiatives offer an opportunity to mitigate climate impacts and improve nutrition outcomes at scale. The S...

The extent and implications of under nutrition in Sub-Saharan Africa have catalyzed political action and programs on the ground. For example, the United Nations has declared a decade of action (2016-2026) and the Sustainable Development Goals have set ambitious targets to end hunger and undernutr...
