Analytical Tools To Assist Climate-Smart Agriculture Policy Making
The document discusses analytical tools to support climate-smart agriculture (CSA) policy making, emphasizing the need for multi-objective decision-making frameworks that accommodate trade-offs and evaluate technology impacts. It highlights the importance of using integrated modeling to understand economic viability over long time horizons and encourages collaboration between policymakers and researchers to foster sustainable policies. Additionally, it outlines the necessity of prioritizing agricultural commodities and utilizing geospatial tools for effective scenario simulations and assessments.

- 12. analytical tools TO ASSISTCSA POLICY MAKING | GFIA 2015 CONCLUDING REMARKS CSA forces us to shifts the emphasis from policies that aim at a single targets to policies that have multiple objectives. CSA changes the planning time horizon: policies and analyses necessarily span long time periods of 20-30 years.
- 13. analytical tools TO ASSISTCSA POLICY MAKING | GFIA 2015 CONCLUDING REMARKS Therefore, CSA requires the use of integrated modeling frameworks that work at multiple geographical scales to: 1) Prioritize investments and provide an accurate understanding of tradeoffs 2) Design long-term economically and politically sustainable policies
