In order to increase the uptake of climate-smart agriculture (CSA) technologies, it is important to understand the contexts in which farmers operate. Farmers use different indicators to decide whether or not to implement, what to implement, and where to implement specific technologies. Identifyin...

Most of the countries in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), including Kenya, depend heavily on agriculture for income and food security. Any effort aiming to sustain and improve the productivity in agriculture is, therefore, an important step towards improving the livelihoods of many households. Soils are...

This household survey was conducted among 88 respondents by CIAT in three counties of western Kenya (Bungoma, Kakamega, and Siaya) in 2016. The main aim of the project was to conduct a cost benefit analysis of eight climate-smart soil (CSS) practices, as a step toward understanding whether they w...

The process of getting climate-smart agricultural (CSA) interventions and practices to farmers is just as important as the interventions and practices. Given the complex systems in which CSA is implemented and the various CSA practices and technologies, there is no one-size-fits-all scaling path...

Recognizing successful climate-smart agricultural (CSA) practices is not enough for them to be adopted at scale. At many sites, government or development-led interventions to promote CSA practices face low adoption rates or are not adopted at all. Data shows that CSA adoption depends on drivers...

Research suggests that farmer-to-farmer learning can be up to six times more effective in spreading knowledge of CSA practices than in areas where it is not carried out. Understanding the wider context and requirements for social learning is key. Peer learning is an effective way to disseminate C...
