Building resilient integrated crop-livestock farming systems

Focus: Building resilient, integrated, mixed, multi- enterprise land use systems adapted to key non-tropical dry area agro-ecologies (rainfed, agro-pastoral, and irrigated) and markets. Sustainable intensification of non-tropical dry area crop and livestock production systems, with a strong market orientation, is a key driver of increasing agricultural productivity and is crucial to addressing livelihoods, food security, and the sustainable use of natural resources under changing climate conditions. This intensification requires addressing significant water-limited yield gaps in rainfed areas through improved agronomic practices and the scaling up of conservation-based farming practices. To support adoption of conservation agriculture, SRP3 will develop solutions to optimize the use of plant biomass for restoring soil health and livestock feed. We will develop integrated crop–legume–livestock systems that move towards carbon neutrality and increased resilience to cope with climates of the future.
