Climate Smart Agriculture? Assessing the Adaptation Implications in Zambia (2015, background): “There are a number of reasons why CA may not be suitable in particular contexts (Lal et al., 2004; Knowler and Bradshaw, 2007; Gowing and Palmer, 2008; Giller et al., 2009; McCarthy et al., 2011; Nkala et al., 2011).”
Smallholder farmers’ adaptation to climate change and determinants of their adaptation decisions in the Central Rift Valley of Ethiopia (2017, background): “The respondents articulated the need to integrate tree planting, crop production and livestock production as a package of climate smart agriculture [11, 12].”
How Can African Agriculture Adapt to Climate Change? A Counterfactual Analysis from Ethiopia (2012, background): “A comprehensive determination of cost in this context can be indeed be problematic because of the existence of some costs that are actually “hidden” (McCarthy, Lipper, and Branca 2011).”
Smallholder productivity and weather shocks: Adoption and impact of widely promoted agricultural practices in Tanzania (2017, background): “SWC measures also often provide external benefits to neighbors and downstream water users by mitigating flooding, enhancing biodiversity, and reducing sedimentation of waterways (McCarthy et al., 2011).”
Climate-smart agriculture: perspectives and framings (2018, background): “McCarthy, Lipper, and Branca (2011), for example, argue that there are institutional1 barriers to the adoption and upscaling of CSA technologies and practices.”
