Definition of CSA -1
“CSA is an approach for developing agricultural strategies to
secure sustainable food security under climate change.
Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is an approach that helps to
guide actions needed to transform and reorient agricultural
systems to effectively support development and ensure food
security in a changing climate. CSA aims to tackle 3 main
objectives i) sustainably increasing agricultural productivity and
incomes; ii) adapting and building resilience to climate change; and iii)
reducing and/or removing greenhouse gas emissions, where possible.” (
