Abstract

The international community has advocated the adoption of climate†smart agriculture (CSA) as lower†income countries deal with the negative consequences of climate change. Scaling up such policies, practices, and programs successfully will require support from a variety of local stakeholders. Such support requires alignment between CSA solutions and the problem understandings of stakeholders. However, problem understandings can differ across individuals, stakeholder groups, and geographic areas. Consequently, we examine understandings of climate problems and socioeconomic and infrastructure problems related to agriculture among different stakeholder groups in Uganda and Senegal. We operationalized and measured these problem understandings following the detailed guidance of the political will and public will approach for analyzing social change. Semistructured interviews elicited stakeholder†generated lists of problems for each group. Limited quantification of problem understandings and their relative importance or “ripeness†demonstrates how contexts might shape opportunities for CSA.æ°”å€™è½¬å ˜èƒŒæ™¯ä¸‹çš„å†œä¸šï¼šä¹Œå¹²è¾¾å’Œå¡žå†…åŠ å°”åœ¨é—®é¢˜ç †è§£ä¸Šçš„å¸ƒå±€å’Œæˆ ç†Ÿåº¦ 国际社会已æ å€¡ä½Žæ”¶å…¥å›½å®¶é‡‡å –æ°”å€™æ™ºèƒ½åž‹å†œä¸šï¼ˆclimate†smart agriculture, CSAï¼‰åº”å¯¹æ°”å€™å ˜åŒ–å¸¦æ ¥çš„æ¶ˆæž ç»“æžœã€‚ä¸ºæˆ åŠŸæ‰©å¤§æ­¤ç±»æ”¿ç­–ã€ å®žè·µå’Œç›¸å…³è®¡åˆ’, éœ€è¦ ä¸€ç³»åˆ—æœ¬åœ°åˆ©ç›Šç›¸å…³è€…çš„æ”¯æŒ ã€‚è¿™æ ·çš„æ”¯æŒ è¦ æ±‚å°†CSAè§£å†³æŽªæ–½å’Œåˆ©ç›Šç›¸å…³è€…å¯¹æ°”å€™é—®é¢˜çš„ç †è§£è ”ç³»èµ·æ ¥ã€‚ç„¶è€Œ, ä¸ å Œçš„ä¸ªäººã€ åˆ©ç›Šç›¸å…³è€…ç¾¤ä½“å’Œåœ°ç †ä½ ç½®éƒ½å ¯èƒ½å¯¹é—®é¢˜çš„ç †è§£ä¸ å°½ç›¸å Œã€‚å› æ­¤, æœ¬æ–‡æ£€éªŒäº†ä¹Œå¹²è¾¾å’Œå¡žå†…åŠ å°”åœ°åŒºä¸ å Œåˆ©ç›Šç›¸å…³è€…ç¾¤ä½“å¯¹ä¸Žå†œä¸šç›¸å…³çš„æ°”å€™é—®é¢˜ã€ ç» æµŽç¤¾ä¼šé—®é¢˜ã€ åŸºç¡€è®¾æ–½é—®é¢˜çš„çœ‹æ³•ã€‚æœ¬æ–‡ä¾ ç…§æ”¿æ²»æ„ æ„¿å’Œå…¬ä¼—æ„ æ„¿æ–¹æ³•ï¼ˆç”¨äºŽåˆ†æž ç¤¾ä¼šå ˜åŒ–ï¼‰çš„ä»”ç»†æŒ‡å¯¼, å¯¹é—®é¢˜ç †è§£ï¼ˆproblem understandingï¼‰è¿›è¡Œäº†æ“ ä½œåŒ–å’Œè¡¡é‡ ã€‚å Šç»“æž„åŒ–é ¢è¯•å¾—å‡ºäº†æ¯ ç»„åˆ©ç›Šç›¸å…³è€…ç¾¤ä½“åˆ—å‡ºçš„é—®é¢˜ã€‚å¯¹é—®é¢˜ç †è§£çš„æœ‰é™ é‡ åŒ–ï¼ˆlimited quantification), åŠ ä¸Šç›¸å…³é‡ è¦ æ€§/â€œæˆ ç†Ÿåº¦â€ ï¼ˆripeness), å…±å Œè¯ æ˜Žäº†æƒ…å¢ƒå¦‚ä½•èƒ½å½±å“ CSA 机会。La Agricultura En Climas Cambiantes: La Configuración y Madurez Del Entendimiento De Los Problemas En Uganda y Senegal La comunidad internacional ha apoyado la adopción de la agricultura “climate†smart†(CSA) ya que los países de bajos ingresos están lidiando con las consecuencias negativas del cambio climático. Incrementar estas política, prácticas y programas exitosamente requerirá apoyo de una variedad de partes interesadas. Este apoyo requiere un alineamiento entre las soluciones de la CSA y el entendimiento de problemas de las partes interesadas. Sin embargo, el entendimiento de los problemas puede ser distinto en diferentes individuos, grupos de interesados y áreas geográficas. Consecuentemente, examinamos el entendimiento de problemas del clima en temas socioeconómicos e infraestructurales, relacionados a la agricultura, en diferentes grupos de interesados en Uganda y Senegal. Pusimos en práctica y medimos estas formas de entender el problema con la ayuda de la dirección que nos da la aproximación de la voluntad política y pública para analizar el cambio político. Las entrevistas semi estructuradas fomentaron la creación de listas generadas por las partes interesadas para cada grupo. La cuantificación limitada de las formas de entender el problema y su importancia o “madurez†relativa demuestra cómo los contextos pueden formar oportunidades para la CSA.
