Governments all over the world have started to pay heed to CSA, and due attention has been started to be given to the farmers for support to move toward sustainable ways of farming.
$1.5 Billion Investment by the USDA
According to the USDA, the United States is committing $1.5 billion to further advance the development and implementation of conservation and climate-smart agriculture. This new funding will support various farm practices promoting natural resources, such as lowering greenhouse gas emissions and generating additional income streams for producers [oai_citation:4,USDA Makes $1.5 Billion Available to Help Farmers Advance Conservation and Climate-Smart Agriculture as Part of President Biden’s Investing in America Agenda | Natural Resources Conservation Service](https://www.nrcs.usda.gov/programs-initiatives/rcpp-regional-conservation-partnership-program/news/usda-makes-15-billion).
Climate-Smart Practices
CSATechniques include precision agriculture, agroforestry, and improved livestock management. These are meant to improve production, enhance resilience to climate change, and lower carbon emission. On its part, the agroforestry practice normally incorporates trees and bushes into the agricultural landscape to offer habitat for the preservation of biodiversity and carbon sequestration.
International Efforts
At the global level, programmes such as the United Nations’ Climate-Smart Agriculture provide technical assistance and funding for countries to develop and implement CSA strategies. These efforts could prove to be critical to the attainment of yet-to-be-defined global food security and climate targets.
Conclusion
Government support is a very important requirement to scale up climate smart agriculture. Through financial and technical support, governments can smoothly shift farmers to more sustainable and resilient farming practices with secure food futures under climate change.
