| description | This MELIA study evaluates the impact of AICCRA interventions on farmers' access to and use of Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) and Climate Information Services (CIS) in Senegal. Based on a sample survey of 427 farming households across six regions, the study employs quantitative methods to estimate use rates and assess dissemination pathways. Results indicate that 59.38% of beneficiaries have used CIS and/or CSA, with confidence intervals suggesting a total adoption range between 83,421 and 97,072 individuals. The most widely accessed CIS include short-term rainfall forecasts (69.14%) and seasonal forecasts (47.66%), yet critical information on post-harvest handling and climate finance remains largely unavailable.
Use of CSA technologies is notable, with 29.76% of beneficiaries utilizing improved seed varieties and 11% using microdosing techniques. Bundled approaches integrating mobile phones, radios, and training have proven effective, reaching approximately 23,858 beneficiaries. However, gender disparities persist, with only 6.57% of female beneficiaries using CIS and/or CSA, underscoring the need for targeted inclusion strategies. The study also highlights the indirect impact of CIS dissemination, with an estimated 1,040,148 secondary beneficiaries.
Key findings emphasize the potential for scaling CSA and CIS use through enhanced bundling strategies, gender-responsive policies, and peer learning networks. Future interventions should focus on expanding access to underutilized climate services, improving financial support mechanisms, and leveraging community-driven knowledge transfer systems to maximize resilience and sustainability in agricultural practices. |
