climate smart agriculture

2. CLIMATE SMART AGRICULTURE ON PEST
MANAGEMENT
• Climate-smart pest management (CSPM) is a cross-sectoral
approach that aims to reduce pest-induced crop losses,
enhance ecosystem services, reduce greenhouse gas
emissions and strengthen the resilience of agricultural
systems in the face of climate change.

3. CSA CONCEPT
 An integrated approach to developing technical, policy and investment conditions to
achieve sustainable agricultural development for food security under climate change.
 It integrates the three dimensions of sustainable development (economic, social and
environmental) by jointly addressing food security and climate challenges.
 CSA brings together practices, policies and institutions that are not necessarily new
but are used in the context of climatic changes, which are unfamiliar to farmers.
 What is also new is the fact that the multiple challenges faced by agriculture and
food systems are addressed simultaneously and holistically, which helps avoid
counterproductive policies, legislation or financing.

4. OVERVIEW OF CSA
• Addresses the complex interrelated challenges of food security, development and
climate change, and identifies integrated options that create synergies and reduce
trade-offs
• Recognizes that these options will be shaped by specific country contexts and capacities
as well as socio- economic and environmental situations
• Assesses the interactions between sectors and the needs of different stakeholders
• Identifies barriers to adoption (esp. for farmers), and provides appropriate solutions in
terms of policies, strategies, actions and incentives
• Seeks to create enabling environments through a better alignment of policies,
investments and institutions
• Strives to achieve multiple objectives with the understanding that priorities need to be
set and collective decisions made on different benefits and trade-offs
• Prioritizes the strengthening of livelihoods (esp. those of smallholders) by improving
access to services, knowledge, resources (including genetic resources), financial
products and markets

5. • Addresses adaptation and builds resilience to shocks, especially those related to
climate change
• Considers climate change mitigation as a potential secondary co-benefit, especially
in low-income, agricultural-based populations
• Seeks to identify opportunities to access climate-related financing and integrate it
with traditional sources of agricultural investment finance

6. Integrated Pest Management (IPM)
IPM is a holistic approach that combines various pest control
methods, such as biological control, cultural practices, and
judicious use of pesticides. Climate-smart IPM emphasizes the
selection of pest-resistant crop varieties, crop diversification, proper
irrigation, and maintaining healthy soil to minimize pest problems.
Key Components of Climate- Smart Pest in Agriculture
Early warning systems
Climate-smart agriculture incorporates early warning systems for
pests and diseases. By monitoring weather patterns and studying
pest life cycles, farmers can anticipate pest outbreaks and take
proactive measures to prevent or mitigate them.

7. Resilient crop varieties
CSA promotes the use of crop varieties that are resilient to climatic changes,
including pest pressures. These varieties are bred to have natural resistance
or tolerance to pests and diseases, reducing the need for chemical control.
Conservation biological control
This approach focuses on promoting beneficial insects and organisms that
naturally keep pest populations in check. By preserving natural habitats and
implementing practices such as planting insectary plants, farmers can attract
beneficial insects and enhance the ecosystem services they provide.
Precision farming technologies
Utilizing precision farming technologies, such as remote sensing, satellite
imagery, and crop modeling, can help farmers detect and respond to pest
pressure more effectively. These tools provide real-time data on crop health,
pest distribution, and weather patterns, enabling farmers to take timely and
targeted pest management actions.

10. Climate- Smart
Agriculture in Lowland
Areas

11. Climate-smart agriculture in lowland areas refers
to agricultural practices that are adapted to the specific
climate conditions of low-lying regions. These practices aim
to enhance productivity, improve resilience to climate
change impacts, and minimize negative environmental
impacts.

12. Goals of Climate- Smart Agriculture

13. PRACTICES OF CSA IN LOWLAND AREAS
AQUAPONICS/URBAN
AQUAPONICS
In the Philippines, the increased rate of
urbanization and scarcity of land area in
the metro call for the need for sustainable
ways to utilize limited spaces. Under the
“Plant,
Plant, Plant Program” of the Department
of Agriculture (DA), the project “Urban
Aquaponics” was launched in 2020 by the
Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic
Resources (BFAR) to address the growing
need for sustainable food production
during the COVID-19 pandemic utilizing a
minimal space such as in a household
backyard (Rayos and Tuñacao, 2021)

14. • GROWING CLIMATE- RESILIENT
RICE
Growing climate resilient rice
involves using techniques such as
planting drought-tolerant and flood-
resistant varieties, crop rotation,
efficient water management like
alternate wetting and drying (AWD),
and agroforestry. These methods
increase farmer resilience to climate
change and protect their livelihoods
while ensuring a sustainable supply
of rice for future generations.

15. • AGRO REFORESTATION
Agroforestry is a collective name
for land-use systems and
technologies where woody
perennials (trees, shrubs, palms,
bamboos, etc.) are deliberately
used on the same land-
management units as agricultural
crops and/or animals, in some
form of spatial arrangement or
temporal sequence

16. Implementing climate-smart agriculture in lowland areas requires a
comprehensive approach that combines various strategies and
techniques. Here are some steps to consider:
1. Conduct a baseline assessment
2. Promote soil and water conservation
3. Use flood-tolerant crop varieties
4. Introduce agroforestry and crop diversification
5. Incorporate modern technologies and climate data
6. Provide training and support
