ABSTRACT
A scope of climate smart agriculture innovations, practices and services has been started in
climate-smart villages as adaptation strategies for adopting with climate risks to ensure stability
and sustainability in agricultural production. There are energizing opportunities for scaling out
and immense potentials of these procedures for increasing crop yields and farm incomes and
diminishing ozone depleting substance discharges. Strengthening agricultural extension service
and agricultural finance to accomplish smart agricultural practices/technologies by linking
climate finance to traditional agricultural finance could play a significant role in scaling out the
CSA practices and technologies to make agriculture more sustainable and climate-resilient and a
viable source of livelihood and food security for millions of farmers in India. Zero budget natural
farming (NBNF) as a climate-resilient agriculture system can upgrade food and nutritional
security, enabling farmers to improve good soil fertility and yields through low costs, risk and
irrigation needs, thus protecting the ecosystem by improving soil organic matter, water
maintenance and biodiversity and minimizing air and water pollution as well as green house gas
emissions. This deals the significance of climate smart agriculture in promoting sustainable
agricultural development and ensuring food security and mitigating the bad impacts of climatic
changes on agricultural productivity in India.
Keywords: climate smart agriculture, zero budget natural farming, biodiversity and food
security.
