3. CC as threat to Agriculture in TZ CC poses greatest threat to many people including farming communities.  Agriculture is a climate sensitive sector (rain fed)  Communities depending on the sector are more vulnerable to the impacts of CC (drought, flood)  There is declining agricultural production as a result of severe, recurrent and prolonged droughts and flooding. 9/29/2016tmassoi@yahoo.com: MAFC; Tanzania

4. Background……… TZ is signatory to the UNFCCC since 1992 Affirmed to international commitment in combating climate change through:-  Development of policies, strategies and plans for addressing CC.  National CCS has been developed and has identified sector wise areas of responses  Currently finalizing NAPs and NAMAs 9/29/2016tmassoi@yahoo.com: MAFC; Tanzania

5. Agriculture sector responses  Mainstream CC within agriculture policies, strategies, initiatives and plans. (TAFSIP, ASDPII, NAP(2013)  Building resilience to current crop productivity and future investment.(Promote and invest in irrigation and SAGCOT- commercial farming)  MAFC Came up with Climate Resilient Plan with 4 priority actions  Came up with CSA programme with 6 Programmatic result areas  Improved Productivity and Incomes  Building resilience and associated mitigation co-benefits  Value Chain Integration  Research for Development and Innovations  CSA Knowledge, Extension and Agro-weather Services  Improved Institutional Coordination  Came up with CSA guidelines-Process on going 9/29/2016tmassoi@yahoo.com: MAFC; Tanzania

6. Action 2 Accelerate uptake of climate smart agriculture Action 3 Reduce impacts of climate- related shocks through improved risk management Action 1 Improve agricultural land and water management Action 4 Strengthen knowledge and systems to target climate action Priority resilience actions for the ACRP 9/29/20166 To ensure productivity and food security

7. Action 2 Increase yields through Climate Smart Agriculture Priority investments include:-  Building an evidence base for Climate Smart Agricultural practices  Incentives to offset the cost of adoption,  Promoting practices at the District level,  Generating awareness and capacity for such practices 9/29/2016tmassoi@yahoo.com: MAFC; Tanzania

8. Why Climate Smart Agr practices ? Smallholder farmers are among the most vulnerable to climate change:- – Better farming practices can increase yields – Safeguard natural resources, – Build resilience against climate variability. Climate Smart Agriculture is part of the solution! 9/29/2016tmassoi@yahoo.com: MAFC; Tanzania
