“…Precision agriculture ensures profitability, manageability and protection of the environment [51]. Climate-smart agriculture and sustainable intensification are broadly professed to be high-potential answers for mentioning the interlinked challenges on hunger elimination and climate monitoring [52]. Agribusiness is being viewed as one of the best fields where UAVs can offer answers for resolving numerous prevailing and durable issues.…”

In today's era, internet-connected things provide immense opportunities to the world for enhancing the quality of lives through better data processing and intelligent decision making. Since the last decade, IoT brought numerous changes in people's personal as well as professional lives. With the enhancement in quality of lives, IoT also comes up with challenges such as security and privacy of data and devices. Every day, the attacker generates new zero-day attacks for IoT devices and data, and it's important to detect and protect the IoT eco-system from this type of attacks. Numerous researchers have proposed security schemes and methods to protect the IoT eco-system through either cryptography way or learning technique based way. AI and ML learning techniques have got immense popularity in handling the IoT security challenges as they are automatic in nature and can outperform provided the sufficient quality and quantity of data. Moreover, the AI techniques, including ML, DL and FL helps in intelligent decision-making and can also generate knowledge through its learning techniques. AI needs data to process, and IoT supplies the necessary data to process. In this paper, we provide a state-of-the-art survey for IoT security solutions proposed based on learning techniques. We provide an in-depth review of available learning techniques to solve critical security challenges such as IoT authentication, access control, anomaly detection and malware analysis. At the end, we also highlighted various futuristic technologies that can invigorate IoT research and help in the design of full proof IoT eco-system.

“…104 Implementing CSA at scale requires a multi-disciplinary approach that goes beyond the biophysical piloting of options in specific agro-ecologies, and seeks to understand how these options can be embedded in a given socio-economic context and how science-policy interfacing (see the "Enabling environment and the science policy interface" section) can help bring them to scale. 105 A starting point in this process is the identification of the trade-offs and synergies of CSA practices across space and time, 106 followed by participatory processes that help identify what options have the largest potential (based on their biophysical performance and farmer adoption). Partey et al 107 show that agroforestry options (i.e.…”

Conflicts are increasingly analysed as exhibiting a stealth complexity in which triggers and consequences are intricately linked to climate, environmental degradation and the struggle to control a finite pool of natural resources. The climate crisis is a multifaceted reality and, against this background, many pressing priorities compete with each other. The disruptive effect of climate variability and change on food systems is particularly acute and constitutes a direct and tangible threat to livelihoods globally. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate and discuss the importance of food systems under a climate crisis in exacerbating conflicts in the Sahelian region and propose interventions beyond and complementary to the usual military and security solutions. We demonstrate for the Sahel that (i) climate hazards are frequent and exposure to climate variability is high, (ii) hotspots of high climate variability and conflict exist, and (iii) impact pathways by which climate exacerbates food systems that can lead to conflicts are documented in the literature. While these three findings suggest clear links between conflict and climate, we find that (iv) current peace indices do not include climate and food systems indicators and therefore provide an uncomplete picture, and (v) food systems programming for climate adaptation has so far not explicitly considered peace and security outcomes. Furthermore, we propose that food systems programming that truly tackles the climate crisis should take more explicit account of peace and security outcomes in conflict-affected areas.

“…They provided examples to demonstrate the importance of SI in CSA, such as banana-coffee intercropping or livestock diet intensification through agroforestry. But the same rule applies to CSA-SI than to CSA itself: spatial variation always should be taken into account and implementation should be targeted [45]. CSA has a global aim that requires local actions.…”

Climate-Smart Agriculture on Small-Scale Farms: A Systematic Literature Review

Overpopulation and climate change are among the greatest challenges the world faces. Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) provides an adequate answer by aiming for higher productivity, resilience, as well as GHG emission reduction. As small-scale farms are the cornerstone of the agricultural sector, especially in developing countries, their greater involvement in climate-related actions is essential. CSA practices seek a higher and more stable income sustainably. This systematic literature review aims to provide an overview of how CSA is realized on small-scale farms, what the major CSA practices applied are, and what factors motivate and hamper higher CSA adoption. Based on 30 selected articles, the major message of the literature is a case/site-specific approach due to the tremendous heterogeneity of small-scale farms. As agricultural production is characterized by high risks and low returns, small-scale farmers must consider the length of the payback period when they decide on any CSA practices. This is the reason smallholdings, who implement any CSA practices, must achieve economic benefits, otherwise, they need to be compensated for providing environmental benefits. Moreover, simpler methods with low labor intensity are often applied. Access to the different financial instruments and inputs, knowledge/education/information, and land use security are the critical factors of the CSA adoption. Furthermore, it is worth mentioning that, unlike off-farm activities/incomes, full-time farming is a serious commitment that positively influences CSA adoption.
