As the population booms we can expect that the food insecurity challenge will only intensify. Rising demand for food plus shrinking Agricultural production is a formula for continued hunger and poverty and a problem that requires ingenuity and innovative solutions. Increasingly we see climate-smart agriculture as an approach that can help change the equation.
very simply climate-smart agriculture aims to produce more food on less land and with a minimal environmental footprint. This principle needs to be applied across landscapes crops livestock forests and fisheries to be effective Guided by this approach we are working with farmers in Ethiopia Malawi and Vietnam to implement productive climate resilient agriculture ecosystems that also help mitigate climate change by reducing emissions and potentially capturing carbon.
