Geospatial Technology for Climate-Smart Agriculture STARTING From July 10 – July 14, 2023
About the Program:
Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is an integrated approach to managing landscapes—cropland, livestock, forests and fisheries–that address the interlinked challenges of food security and climate change (World bank, IBRD-IDA). The food security will become more difficult with growing population of world, thus CSA is need of hour to brain-storm and implement through policy making and strategy planning.
