4. What is CSA?
Sustainably increases
productivity and
income
Strengthens resilience
to climate change and
variability
Reduce agriculture’s
contribution to climate
change
National Food Security
and Development Goals
6. A landscape approach deals with large-
scale processes in an integrated and
multidisciplinary
manner, combining natural resources
management with environmental and
livelihood considerations.
Landscape Approach
in CSA
7. Why Landscape Approach in
CSA?
• CSA practices and activities will be part of
landscapes and compete against other land
uses
helps to understand who participates in CSA and how they
may affected – positively and negatively.
• Farm level change is necessary, but not
sufficient.
• Provides a way to scale up project-based
initiatives into a coordinated national program.
8. Agriculture with
Natural resources
Agriculture with
Policies & Traditions
Agriculture with Natural
Technologies & Markets
What can we do with
Landscape Approach?
(1) climate-smart practices at the field and farm scale;
(2) diversity of land use across the landscape to provide
resilience; and
(3) management of land use interactions at a landscape scale
to achieve social, economic, and ecological impacts.

10. Large enough to allow for the wide-reaching management
within the specified landscape, BUT small enough to allow all
relevant stakeholders in the landscape to participate in
decision-making and planning.
12. Farming System
and Practices
Crop Production System
Livestock Production
Efficiency and Resilience
Fisheries and Aquacultures
Integrated System:
• Conservation Agriculture
• Agroforestry
• Urban and peri-urban agriculture
• Diversified and Integrated
Food - Energy Systems
13. Crop production
• Changing
→cropping patterns
→planting dates
→management techniques
• Diversifying crop systems
• Genetic resources and resilience
• Adequate use of ground water
14. • Managing organic matter
• Retaining soil moisture
• Avoiding soil erosion
• Increasing nutrient use
efficiency
• Controlling salinization
• Pest and disease control
Crop production
16. Efficient and resilient
Fisheries
Strategic location of aquaculture infrastructure
Selection of suitable stock (saline resistant species
in zones facing sea level rise)
Switching to herbivorous or omnivorous species
Planting mangroves in aquaculture areas
17. Integrated systems
1. Minimal mechanical soil
disturbance
2. Maintenance of a mulch of
carbon
3. Rotations or sequences and
associations of crops
Conservation
Agriculture
18. • Home gardens with
multipurpose trees and
shrubs
• Intercropping of trees and
crops (timber/cereal; annual
crops/first years of forest or
orchards plantations)
• Silvopasture
• Shelterbelts, windbreaks,
fodder banks, live fences,
etc
Agroforestry
Integrated systems
19. Integrated systems
• Crop and livestock systems: recycling
• Fish and crop
• Urban and Periurban Agriculture
• Integrated Food Energy System:
– Food and energy crops (trees)
– Use of by-products of one product to
produce another one (e.g. Biogas)
– Solar, photovoltaic, geothermal, wind and
water power
20. Role of Institutions
• Enabling policy environment
• Production and dissemination of information
• Climate data and information gaps
• Dissemination mechanisms- Farmer Field
Schools (FFS)
• Improve access coordination and collective
action
• Support financing and insurance needs
