Abstract

The 2030 UN agenda includes a strong emphasis on addressing climate change, with particular attention to resilience, adaptability, and policy breakthroughs. Climate influence is given first priority in climate-smart agriculture practices (CSAP), which emphasize on carbon emission reduction through adaptation, resilience, and mitigation. With an emphasis on education and operational preparation for sustainable management, this study offers farmers a framework to anticipate important events, evaluate livelihood resources, establish mitigation strategies, analyze outcomes, and adapt to climate-related circumstances. In order to obtain sustainable and consistent profits, this systematic analysis examines climate-smart agricultural (CSA) practices on small-scale farms. It focuses on the adoption, prevalent practices, and factors that support or impede CSA adoption. This study examines the application of CSA in both developed and developing nations, points out challenges, and makes recommendations for the future. Using internet technology for information security, optimizing cropping patterns, integrating weather and internet services, and examining weather index-based insurance are important topics to focus on.  The objectives of CSA are to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increase production, and promote climate change resistance. Establishing a scientific start enhancing institutions, policies, and funding sources, and putting it into practice on the ground are its five main action items. CSA tackles issues in a variety of agricultural subsectors, such as food supply chains, fisheries, aquaculture, forestry, land and water resource management, and crop and livestock production. The research suggests a CSA framework for enhancing integrated agricultural systems, including Mixed Farming Systems, by employing Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, bigdata, smart sensors, automated monitoring systems, and sophisticated data collection to encourage sustainability and resistance to climate impacts.
