Abstract

Climate change poses significant challenges to global agriculture, necessitating sustainable practices to ensure food security and mitigate environmental impacts. Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is a technique that aims to boost agricultural productivity, improve adaptive ability, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. It includes practices like crop management, sustainable farming, agroforestry, precision farming, and climate-resilient crop varieties. CSA improves soil health, water use efficiency, erosion, carbon sequestration, biodiversity conservation, and resource utilization. Precision agriculture tools like remote sensing and data analytics enable site-specific management decisions. Climate-resilient crop types, such as drought-tolerant, heat-tolerant, and disease-resistant, are crucial for food production under changing climatic conditions. Encouraging laws, institutional frameworks, and financial incentives are essential for CSA implementation. However, more research and collaboration are needed to promote widespread adoption of CSA practices.
