| Sumario: | KEY MESSAGES
- The integration of agroecological practices stands out as a promising strategy to enhance resilience against climate hazards.
- Agroecological practices such as mulch, crop residues, shaded trees and living barriers increase climate resilience by increasing soil moisture or decreasing soil temperature and erosion.
- While agroecological practices may require initial investments, they are not an economic burden for smallholders.
- This analysis leads to several actionable recommendations for policymakers and stakeholders including investing in farmer education on agroecology and providing financial support for the initial transition period. |
