Climate Smart Agriculture

Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is an integrative approach to address these interlinked challenges of food security and climate change, that explicitly aims for three objectives:

1. Sustainably increasing agricultural productivity, to support equitable increases in farm incomes, food security and development;
2. Adapting and building resilience of agricultural and food security systems to climate change at multiple levels; and
3. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture (including crops, livestock and fisheries).
