The Mekong River Delta in Vietnam accounts for over half of the country’s domestic #rice production yet is increasingly affected by climate change. Dr. Bui Tan Yen is leading a team to develop an approach known as CS-MAP, a participatory approach of climate risk mapping, which provides farmers wi...

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...

Why is climate-smart agriculture important, and can it work? Watch this 3 minute trailer for an insight into what the challenges are, and where the solutions might lie. Originally produced to introduce the Learning Events section of Agriculture and Rural Development Day at the United Nations COP1...
Research suggests that gender equity is a critical factor in the adoption of climate-smart agricultural (CSA) practices.
If gender is not explicitly considered in climate-related interventions, the adoption of climate-resilient practices is unlikely to reach scale.
Climate-resilient interventio...

Population growth in the next few decades will increase the need for food production, while the yields of major food crops
could be impacted by the changing climate and changing threats from pests and pathogens. Crop breeding, both through
conventional techniques, and GM assisted breeding could h...

Approaches that aim to identify and prioritize locally appropriate climate smart agriculture (CSA) technologies will need to address the context-specific multi-dimensional complexity in agricultural systems. The climate smart agriculture rapid appraisal (CSA-RA) is a mixed method approach that dr...

With the concept climate-smart agriculture (CSA) being relatively new, there is a need to test
and develop practical and systematic methodologies and approaches for documenting and
evaluating CSA practices in the field. The implementation of CCAFS’ Climate-Smart
Villages (CSV) involves identif...
