This progress report summarizes the CSA practices, technologies and services implemented and/ or evaluated in 2017 across the CCAFS Climate-Smart villages network
In the highlands of Western Kenya, we investigated the reversibility of soil productivity decline with increasing length of continuous maize cultivation over 100 years (corresponding to decreasing soil organic carbon (SOC) and nutrient contents) using organic matter additions of differing quality...
Preliminary results from climate change adaptation and mitigation initiatives in Lushoto climate-smart villages, Tanzania.
Increasing weather risks threaten agricultural production systems and food security across the world. Maintaining agricultural growth while minimizing climate shocks is crucial to building a resilient food production system and meeting developmental goals in vulnerable countries. Experts have pro...
This progress report summarizes the key results from the CSV monitoring undertaken in 2018 in the Hoima Climate-Smart village (Uganda). It focuses on the levels of CSA implementation and gender-disaggregated perceived effects of CSA practices on households livelihoods and gender dimensions
