The dynamic nature of climate and its impacts on agriculture is rendering most of the existing adaptation and coping strategies unsupportive in many regions. Recent studies on economic sectors (including agriculture) across institutions and 24 counties have established the following: a widened ga...

• A thorough understanding of spring systems is essential to design evidence-based springshed interventions. The necessary information can be collected by conducting hydrometeorological monitoring, hydrogeological assessments and
isotope analysis.
• Springs are recharged by a combination of both ...

Brief of scoping study. Root and tuber crops in Central Vietnam: An underestimated potential for food and income (Vietnamese).
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...

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...

Coffee is a staple of Central American exports and agricultural production, not least in El Salvador. Coffee is the second-highest export in terms of value at around US$ 113.4 million in annual foreign currency earnings. The coffee sector directly generates over 40,000 jobs in rural El Salvador. ...
