Understanding CSA

What is Climate-SmartAgriculture?

Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) is a transformative approach that tackles both food security and climate change.

The Three Pillars

Built on a foundation of sustainability and innovation.

Productivity

Improve or stabilize crop yields and increase farmers' incomes.

Adaptation

Help farms become more resilient to droughts, floods, and extreme weather.

Mitigation

Reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance carbon storage through sustainable practices.

Carbon Finance

UnderstandingCarbon Credits

Carbon credits are certificates earned by individuals or organizations for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In agriculture, these credits are gained by adopting verified sustainable practices that help the environment.
