Overview and updates

Why Do We Need a CSA project?
• Improving agriculture: key solution to food insecurity and climate change problems
• Ag growth is most effective means of poverty reduction
• Projected CC impacts require adaptation measures in agriculture
• Often mitigation co-benefits are generated through measures to increase food security and adaptation and these can bring an additional source of finance
• CSA is building agricultural development policies, strategies and investments to increase food security with needed adaptation, capturing financial benefits from potential mitigation co-benefits

Building the evidence base: RILS Communities & AEZs
![Page 10: Climate-Smart Agriculture Project: Overview and updates...FAO-ESA, Keynote Address, 117th EAAE Seminar, Universität Hohenheim, Germany, 25 - 27 November 2010 Food Security Situation](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062919/5ee25f77ad6a402d666cdf43/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Evidence base using (RILS 2004&08): SLM
11
• Planting basins/zero tillage: 5% of farmers on average
(around 90% disadoption rate)
• Crop rotation: 60% of farmers (more stable)
Differences by Land Size
• Basins & zero tillage: more or less equally adopted
by large & smallholders
•Inorganic fert: 67% (large) vs. 23% (small)
• Timely fertilizer: 51% (large) vs. 20% (small)
![Page 11: Climate-Smart Agriculture Project: Overview and updates...FAO-ESA, Keynote Address, 117th EAAE Seminar, Universität Hohenheim, Germany, 25 - 27 November 2010 Food Security Situation](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062919/5ee25f77ad6a402d666cdf43/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Productivity Impacts of SLM
12
• MSD and CR – productivity impacts only in areas
with high rainfall variability
• MSD decreases disastrously low yield probability in
high rainfall variability areas
• Timely access to fertilizer:
• Strongest determinant of yield
• Decreases low yield probability significantly

Policy harmonization: Draft NAP & NCP
15
The dialogue:
1. compared and discussed the two draft policies, specifically their (i) framing elements
(structure,, vision, and objectives); (ii) sectoral measures advocated in both policies relating
to agriculture and (iii) measures enabling implementation of the two policies;
2. identified and analysed synergies and trade-offs, consistencies and inconsistencies, overlaps
and gaps, as well as the division of measures across the two draft policies; and
3. recommended, based on discussions and analysis of the above, options for refinement of
measures in the NAP and NPCC.

Where is it all going?
17
Developing shared understanding and capacity to improve
Zambian agriculture for food security under CC
• Convergence– identifying key CSA investments for Zambia
• Understanding of barriers to adoption and possible institutional
solutions
• Building necessary policy and financing capacity to implement
• Better linking of research/models to questions important to
policy makers
And the participatory scenarios help us on all these
