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...

Research-based evidence on the adoption of climate-smart agricultural practices is vital to their effective uptake, continued use and wider diffusion. In addition, an enabling policy environment at the national and regional levels is necessary for this evidence to be used effectively. This chapte...

Climate-smart agricultural (CSA) interventions often require “fine-tuning” i.e. feedback from multiple stakeholders e.g. farmers, extension agents, NGO workers, and policy implementers on their relevance in a given context. Getting essential feedback to ensure projects are on track in a timely w...

CSA and its principles: food security, mitigation, and adaptation, have been widely recognized as key elements for decision makers to include to meet the Sustainable Development Goals. Yet implementing successful innovations on a wider scale across nations – and even geographies – remains a chall...

A robust, resilient, and enabling policy environment is critical to take agriculture innovations to scale at national or regional level. Policy formulation processes that consider climate variability, socioeconomic and environmental shocks require participatory, inclusive, and explorative scenari...

Better soil health can increase agricultural productivity. Restoration activities can build on-farm resilience and contribute to climate change adaptation and mitigation. Land and soil health surveys can improve crop modeling predictions under various climate scenarios and guide more targeted in...

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...
