Climate-Smart Agriculture in Zimbabwe
The climate-smart agriculture (CSA) concept reflects an ambition
to improve the integration of agriculture development and climate
responsiveness. It aims to achieve food security and broader
development goals under a changing climate and increasing food
demand. CSA initiatives sustainably increase productivity, enhance
resilience, and reduce/remove greenhouse gases (GHGs), and
require planning to address trade-offs and synergies between
these three pillars: productivity, adaptation, and mitigation [1].

Ecosystem services and small-holder farming practices -between payments, development support and right- an integrated approach (ILMI Working paper 10)
Small-scale farmers in north-central Namibia face numerous challenges, ranging from low crop yields, high rainfall variability and land degradation which is threatening the long-term productivity of the land, to social changes that are reducing the work force available for farming. This paper aims to assess existing land use practices (LUPs) and to determine their relationship to ecosystem services (ES). As agriculture (crop and livestock farming) is the dominant land use in northern Namibia, it is the main driver influencing environmental services and will be in the focus here. We suggest
Mid-term Evaluation of the Project “Sustainable Land Management and Climate-Friendly Agriculture” - Management Response
The “Sustainable Land Management and Climate-Friendly Agriculture” Project was implemented in Turkey to improve the sustainability of agricultural and forest land use in the area by rehabilitating degraded forests and rangelands, promoting climate-smart agriculture and establishing a favourable enabling environment. The project was designed to develop the necessary strategies, plans, tools and mechanisms that will aid stakeholders in sustainably managing forest and land resources.

Cada pueblo ha preservado sus memorias ancestrales, prácticas rituales, ceremonias para honrar a la vida, a la tierra que nos cuida y alimenta, para el Tawantinsuyu (traducido como “los 4 pueblos del sol” del idioma Quechua, territorio amplio que ocupa: Ecuador, Perú, Bolivia, Norte de Chile, Norte de Argentina, parte de Colombia y Venezuela) aún vivos como territorio, quedan vigentes los encuentros de sabiduría e intercambio que fortalecen a las comunidades.
Land Tenure Security, Land-Related Investments and Agricultural Performance in Sub-Saharan Africa: Efficiency or Equity? A Microeconomic Analysis Applied to the Case of Burkina Faso
In this article, we study the impact of both secure individual and mixed allocation of plots of land on the farming household propensity to invest in land as well as to improve the productivity of the soil. For that purpose, we resort to the World Bank LSMS-ISA database established in 2014 from a representative sample at the national level of 10,800 farming households in Burkina Faso. The empirical application favors the estimation of a multivariate Probit with random effects and of a translog model with household fixed effects.
Climate Risk Profile Uzbekistan
This profile provides an overview of climate risk issues in Uzbekistan, including how climate change will potentially impact five key sectors in the country: agriculture, water, tourism, ecosystems, human health, and infrastructure. The brief also includes an overview of historical and future climate trends in Uzbekistan, the policy context outlining existing climate risk strategies and plans developed by Uzbekistan, and a list of ongoing projects that focus on climate adaptation.
