As talks on climate change and its impacts echo more than ever before, a book on climate-smart agriculture (CSA) could not have been better timed. This publication assesses vulnerability to cli- mate change, impacts of climate change, and climate-smart agri- culture adopted by smallholder farmers of Pemagatshel District.
-
This book provides readers with a snapshot of profiles of rural farmers, including their challenges and the rate of CSA technology adoption in the context of changing climate. Results are presented in simple descriptive tables and figures for general readers; never- theless, the contents are rich in terms of information. The strength of this book is that the quantitative results are augmented with discussions using qualitative data from stakeholders’ meetings and field observations made by the researchers.
-
The book also in- cludes policy recommendations for promoting CSA in the study area. I believe that the findings in this book will serve as a rich source of information for researchers, policy makers, planners, ac- ademia, and farmers.
