Capacity development for smallholder farmers on climate-smart agriculture via co-experiments in home gardens

In response to the growing impacts of climate change, Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) offers an integrated approach to enhance productivity, resilience, and emission reduction. This study promotes CSA adoption among smallholder farmers in northern Vietnam’s mountainous region by documenting the implementation and early outcomes of a community-based CSA initiative and drawing lessons for future scaling. The...

The perceptions of smallholder farmers to climate change and their responses through nature-based solutions in Northern Vietnam

The Northern Mountainous Region of Vietnam, home to diverse ethnic minority communities, is increasingly vulnerable to climate change, particularly in the agriculture sector. Smallholder farmers face mounting challenges due to shifting temperature and rainfall patterns. This study examines how smallholder farmers in Thai Nguyen and Son La provinces perceive climate change and the factors shaping...

Climate resilience of farming systems in steep mountain terrain of selected regions in South Asia

This study assessed the climate resilience and characterized the existing farming systems in steep terrain in the hilly regions in South Asia. The farming systems considered were at an elevation ≥300 m in the mountain regions of two sites from Sri Lanka (Hatton and Welimada) and one site each from Bangladesh (Chittagong) and Nepal (Jhikhu...
