Abstract
The agricultural sector faces considerable challenges as a result of climate change requiring the implementation of new and sustainable methods. This chapter delves into climate-smart agriculture (CSA), an all-encompassing strategy for boosting agricultural resilience and profitability that incorporates environmental, economic, and social considerations. Various agricultural settings are taken into account with topics including soil, water, crop, livestock, forest, and fisheries management. Precision farming, reforestation, and animal husbandry are all examples of CSA methods. Increased productivity, stable food supplies, lessened vulnerability, and lower expenses are just some of the ways it boosts economic benefits. The results of successful CSA programs can be learned from case studies. Challenges and future prospects are discussed in the latter section of the chapter, along with calls for further study, technical advancements, and policy changes.
