| description | In 2023, Lewa Wildlife Conservancy (LEWA) partnered with the Accelerating Impacts of CGIAR Climate Research for Africa (AICCRA) to scale climate-smart agriculture (CSA) in northern Kenya. This collaboration introduced CGIAR-validated technologies and science-based strategies to address key challenges faced by smallholder farmers, including limited land size, low soil testing rates, minimal crop diversification, and poor market access. Through a comprehensive training program, 4,968 community members were equipped with skills in soil health management, conservation agriculture, integrated pest management, and fodder production. Demonstration farms, irrigation support, and soil testing services enhanced peer-to-peer learning and adoption of CSA practices. Early outcomes show improved crop yields, household incomes, and resilience to climate shocks, underscoring the transformative potential of partnerships in promoting sustainable agriculture and climate adaptation. |
