Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is an integrated approach that helps steer actions to transform agri-food systems towards green and climate resilient practices. This approach seeks to manage landscapes such as cropland, livestock, forests and fisheries that address the interlinked challenges of food security and climate change. The negative impacts of climate change can be observed through weather variability, shifting agroecosystem boundaries, invasive crops and pests, and more frequent extreme weather events. CSA endeavors to simultaneously tackle three main objectives. The foremost aim of CSA is to increase the agricultural productivity and incomes in a sustainable manner. Secondly, it seeks to enhance resilience by reducing the vulnerability to drought, pests, diseases, and other climate-related risks. The final objective of CSA is to reduce emissions caused due to greenhouse gas emissions. The topics included in this book on climate-smart agriculture are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for students, policy makers, and researchers studying the impact of climate change on agriculture and agricultural sustainability.
