In spite of the development of several Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) technologies and the positive gains arising from those technologies, wide scale adoption of CSA practices remains problematic in Africa. There are several barriers that prevent smallholder farmers in Africa from adopting CSA technologies and so far, existing policies and actions to remove these barriers remain inadequate. A good understanding of what these barriers are and how they impinge on adoption of CSA practices is essential. This report identifies barriers to scaling up/out climate smart agriculture practices and proposes strategies and practical actions to remove the barriers and enhance adoption of CSA in Africa.
