Review on Climate Smart Agriculture Practice: A Global Perspective

Abstract

Climate change is having a detrimental effect on the environment’s natural equilibrium. The population that depends on agriculture is suffering from rising temperatures, sporadic droughts and famines, unpredictable dry spells, and irregular rains. Deploying Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) is a terrific strategy to cut greenhouse gas emissions and boost crop output for food security and climate change adaptation. The primary objective of this study is to provide an organized appraisal of current advancements in the field of climate-smart agriculture. For this study, the Scopus database was used to analyze 157 papers that were published between 2013 and 2022. However, the use of climate-smart agriculture technology that considers local knowledge is still quite low in developing countries. Therefore, raising the importance of indigenous knowledge in the context of climate change could aid smallholder agricultural groups in their adaptation. Improving adaptability, developing capacity, and fusing indigenous knowledge with climate-smart agricultural practices may all be necessary to increase a community’s effective resilience to climate change.
