Given its heavy reliance on rainfed agriculture and projected climatic and weather changes, SSA faces multidimensional challenges in ensuring food and nutrition security as well as preserving its ecosystems. In this regard, climate-smart agriculture (CSA) can play an important role in addressing the interlinked challenges of food security and climate change.CSA practices aim to achieve three closely related objectives: sustainably increase agricultural productivity, adapt to climate change, and mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The CSA objectives directly contribute to achieving the 2014 Malabo Declaration goals, which include commitments to (1) end hunger in Africa by 2025, (2) halve poverty by 2025 through inclusive agricultural growth and transformation, and (3) enhance the resilience of livelihoods and production systems to climate variability and other related risks. These linkages underscore the importance of including CSA in country and regional plans to achieve overarching development objectives in Africa, in particular food security and poverty reduction.The 2016 Annual Trends and Outlook Report (ATOR) examines the contribution of CSA to meeting Malabo Declaration goals by taking stock of current knowledge on the effects of climate change, reviewing existing evidence of the effectiveness of various CSA strategies, and discussing examples of CSA-based practices and tools for developing evidence-based policies and programs.Chapter 1 Introduction Chapter 2 TThe effects of climate change on agriculture and food security in Africa Chapter 3 TThe effects of widespread adoption of climate-smart agriculture in Africa south of the Sahara under changing climate regimes  Chapter 4 Climate-smart agriculture options in mixed crop-livestock systems in Africa south of the Sahara Chapter 5 Trade, climate change, and climate-smart agriculture Chapter 6 Insurance opportunities against weather risks for smallholder farmers in Africa Chapter 7 Climate-smart agriculture practices based on precision agriculture: the case of maize in western Congo Chapter 8 The unholy cross: Profitability and adoption of climate-smart agriculture practices in Africa south of the Sahara Chapter 9 Gender-sensitive, climate-smart agriculture for improved nutrition in Africa south of the Sahara Chapter 10 A strategic approach and business model for scaling up ecosystem-based adaptation for sustainable development in Africa Chapter 11 Tracking CAADP indicators and processes Chapter 12 Concluding remarksBookPRIFPRI1; ReSAKSS; A Ensuring Sustainable food production; E Building ResilienceWCAO; EPT
