Climate-smart Agriculture As A Mechanism For Climate Change Adaptation In Africa: The Cases Of Rwanda And Kenya

Authors : Chebli Dounya . Labed Brinis Cherifa .

Abstract

The research study investigates climate-smart agriculture (CSA) as an essential adaptation method against climate change which produces severe impacts on agricultural systems and food production through heat increases and changing weather patterns and pest outbreaks and shifting crop growing locations and intensified extreme weather occurrences. Through analysis of Kenyan and Rwandan experiences the study demonstrates that successful initiatives depend on both government policies which support the process and active involvement of community members. The research study suggests these methods should spread to other African nations for building sustainable food security and enhancing climate change defense systems.
