Authored by Bikila

This paper reviews
various articles, reports and documents on expected role of climate smart
agriculture on food system and factors affecting its adoption in Ethiopia.
Climate change is global phenomena and is already negatively impacting
agricultural production globally and locally. Climate risks to cropping,
livestock and fisheries are expected to increase in coming decades,
particularly in low-income countries where adaptive capacity is weaker. By
2030, 90% of the world’s major crops, including maize, rice and wheat, will
experience reduced or stagnant growth rates as a result of climate change.
Climate change is expected to have a greater impact in low-income countries
such as Ethiopia because of low numbers of trained people, poor infrastructures
and limited economic capability to respond to the challenges. Developing
countries such as Ethiopia are less capable of mitigating or adapting to the
changes due to their poverty and high dependence on the environment for
subsistence.
