“…Whereas, CSA helps to escape drought and CSA helps to reduce GHG emissions, ranked fifth, and sixth with WMS 1.62 and 1.6, respectively. This result is in line with Kumar et al (2016) and Rohila et al (2018). Furthermore, participants in the focus group discussion, stated that local communities have practiced and are well aware of CSA practices such as physical soil and water conservation activities such as mulching, cultivating improved varieties, applying animal dungs, and water harvesting through the use of ponds.…”

Climate change is a global event that poses one of humanity's most serious threats. Consequently, climate-smart agriculture (CSA) provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to adapt to the effects of global climate change while lowering greenhouse gas emissions. The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors that influence farmers' adoption of CSA practices in the Wondo Genet Woreda in southern Ethiopia. The study employed a mixed-methods approach with 213 randomly selected households (HHs). In the study, descriptive statistics, a composite score index, and an ordered logit regression model were used. Farmers' awareness of CSA practices was high, which aided them in increasing farm income and farmland productivity. Tree planting, the use of organic manure, and the use of irrigation systems were the most CSA practices in the study area. Furthermore, the findings revealed that education, HH size, income, climate change perception, and farmland size all had statistically significant effects on farmers' adoption of CSA. Meanwhile, the distance between the farm and the homestead had a negative and significant effect on the level of CSA adoption. Finally, socioeconomic factors should be considered when developing and implementing CSA programs for farmers.

“…Low level of prospects may be in deprivation of better technical support linked with strawberry. The present study gets support from Kumar (2016) who reported that majority of farmers has medium (57.5%) prospects level followed by 22.5% low level and only 20.0% to high level. In nutshell, 77.5% of the respondents had prospects of C. sinensis cultivation from medium to high level.…”

The study on the prospects of strawberry cultivation by the strawberry growers indicated that overall prospects of strawberry cultivation were medium to high since 78 percent belonged to these categories. The study was conducted in Bhiwani and Hisar districts. Prospects were categorized into two categories i.e. production related prospects and general prospect of strawberry cultivation. Majority of farmers agreed that demand is increasing day by day (weighted mean score 2.78) which is an indication of innovativeness (weighted mean score 2.76), status in village (weighted mean score 2.68). The purchasing power of people increased (weighted mean score 2.64) The better economic returns in comparison to other fruit crops (weighted mean score 2.62) and high nutritious value of fruit (weighted mean scores 2.62) were osberved. In case Govt. provides facilities, it would take the persons to go for strawberry cultivation (weighted mean score 2.58). The food habit of people changed (weighted mean score 2.54). The high price (weighted mean score 2.52) was suitable for agro-processing (weighted mean score 2.5), whereas better export facilities available (weighted mean score 1.88), farmer friendly being easy to produce (weighted mean score 1.56), better market facilities available at present (weighted mean score 1.52) and better technical support available(weighted mean score 1.44) were not upto the desired level of prospects as perceived by strawberry growers.
