Kenya’s agriculture is mainly rain-fed (98%) and predominantly small-scale, especially in the medium to high-potential areas which covers less than 15% of the country. The larger proportion of the country (83-89%), is arid and semi-arid with an annual average rainfall of 400 mm. This, coupled with increased land degradation, inadequate access to land and support services, limited credit and markets, inadequate incentives for investment in agriculture, weak producer associations and institutional arrangements, has increased the vulnerability of the farming systems. This has led to erosion of productive assets and weakening their resilience, hence predisposing poor households to food insecurity and high poverty levels. The agricultural sector productivity is directly influenced by emerging and projected climate change patterns that include increased variability of seasonal rainfall and increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather and climate events such as droughts and floods. These have devastating impacts on the national economy and the livelihoods of the people. Negative economic growth indices have been associated with extreme weather events and unless climate change is not addressed, the economic costs of its impacts are estimated to be 3% of GDP per annum by 2030 and 5% by 2050. Further, climate change impacts are likely to increase the vulnerability of farming systems, thus weakening their coping strategies and resilience. Innovative measures are therefore needed to help farmers and consumers cope with the changes in emerging and projected climatic patterns. This Kenya Climate Smart Agriculture Implementation Framework 2018- 2027 (KCSAIF), hereinafter referred to as “the Framework”, has been developed to set guidelines for implementing Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) approaches, strategies, practices and technologies in Kenya. CSA is an approach that will simultaneously enhance gains in agricultural productivity, build resilience to climatic and weather shocks as well as reduce emissions intensity from agriculture and food systems by adapting to efficient practices. This would require collaborative actions amongst the various actors along the value chain, including: National and County Governments, farmers, the private sector, development partners, Non-Governmental Organizations, Civil Society Organizations and other value chain actors. The Framework has been developed to guide implementation of CSA at national and county government levels and above all in the context of global obligations and local realities in consideration that Kenya is a signatory to the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreements. It is realigned to the need for Kenya to realize its development goals under Kenya Vision 2030, of which agriculture is a key driver. The Framework aims at leveraging on global opportunities by providing clear structures through which farmers can directly benefit from by tapping the available global climate financing instruments in collaborations with the sector players. The purpose of the Framework is to “promote climate resilient and low carbon growth sustainable agriculture that ensures food security and contributes to national development goals in line with Kenya Vision 2030’’. This will be realized through implementation of actions designed around four components, viz: 1. Institutional coordination component that will strengthen national inter-ministerial collaboration, enhance coordination between the national and county governments and provide an enabling policy and institutional environment for the realization of the overall purpose of KCSAIF. viii CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 2. Agricultural productivity and integration of value chain approach component that will transform Kenya’s agricultural sector into an innovative, commercially oriented, competitive and modern industry by supporting establishment of efficient and effective value chains. This is meant to support a shift in smallholder production strategies from subsistence to satisfying market demand through use of improved technologies and enhanced linkages. 3. Building resilience and appropriate mitigation actions component which aims at building resilience and associated mitigation co-benefits to address issues related to soil health and land degradation; water and natural resources; insurance and other safety nets; building of synergies in adaptation and mitigation measures. 4. CSA knowledge, extension and agro-weather services component which will raise awareness and strengthen mainstreaming of communication systems to transmit timely information on CSA extension and agro-weather issues among value chain actors. This component will also support local stakeholders to access and adopt methodologies as well as influence the local planning systems that support CSA. Two layers of interventions are anticipated in the Framework. The first layer is expected to address climate smart issues in already planned and funded on-going projects/actions in sector ministries/county governments and private sector initiatives that need climate smarting/monitoring/tracking/learning. The second layer will involve development of new and/or additional actions in form of projects/programmes which address gaps and guides investors/development partners and which may require fund raising. The summary of action areas described will be a guide to achieve this. The proposed investments under the Framework are aligned with MTP III investment priorities. The total budget needed to implement the programme is estimated at KSh. 167.31 Billion. These resources will be mobilized from diverse sources such as the National Government Funding, Bilateral and Multilateral Development Partners, Climate Finance (CF), Adaptation Fund (AF), Green Climate Fund (GCF), and from the Private Sector. This Framework will be implemented within the Joint Consultation and Cooperation Mechanism for the Agricultural Sector (JCCMAS) which is in line with Intergovernmental Relations Act 2012. This will involve the three layers mechanism of operations, viz; (a) Intergovernmental Forum on Agriculture (IGF) which is the highest level of JCCMAS. The IGF is rooted in Intergovernmental Relations Act, where it empowers the Intergovernmental Relations Secretariat to establish sectoral working groups or committees; (b) The Joint Agriculture Sector Steering Committee (JASSCOM) comprises high-level executives of the two levels of governments. The committee will provide regular direction for sector transformation initiatives agreed between the two levels of government and prepares follow-up for IGF meetings; and (c) Joint Agriculture Sector- Technical Working Group (JAS-TWG) which aims at providing a uniform platform for intergovernmental technical consultation based on the principle of equitable representation at the two levels of government to enhance the framework effectiveness. The KCSAIF monitoring and evaluation plan will be agreed upon by the different stakeholders to ensure delivery and ownership. It will be based on Logical Framework Approach (LFA) with emphasis on results. Review of progress in the implementation of CSA actions will be organized annually or biennially through forums at national and county government levels. Public participation will be encouraged through inclusion of all stakeholders in these review forums.

Agro-ecosystem: The organisms and environment of an agricultural area considered as an ecosystem. Agricultural emissions: Agriculture related atmospheric gases responsible for causing global warming and climate change released from converting land into cultivations, fertilizers application and/or livestock production. Agricultural productivity: A measure of the amount of agricultural output produced for a given amount of agricultural inputs e.g. the value of all farm outputs divided by the value of all farm inputs. The process involves increased integration of agriculture with other sectors of the economy. Agricultural transformation: The process by which individual farms shift from subsistence-oriented production towards more advanced production oriented towards the market or other systems of exchange. Arid and Semi-Arid Lands: Areas characterized by inadequate precipitation, which constrains their two major interlinked services of primary production and nutrient cycling. Biodiversity: The total diversity of all organisms and ecosystems at various spatial scales (from genes to entire biomass). Capacity building: In the context of climate smart agriculture, it is the process of developing relevant technical skills and institutional capability to enable effective addressing of the causes and effects of climate change for the agriculture sector. Carbon sequestration: The process of removing carbon from the atmosphere and depositing it in a reservoir such as the soil or trees. CSOs: In this framework CSOs include Non-Governmental Organization, (NGOs), Community Based Organization (CBOs), Faith-based Organizations (FBOs), and other Non-State Actors. Climate change: Climate change refers to a change in the state of the climate that can be identified (e.g. by using statistical tests) by changes in the mean and/or the variability of its properties, and that persists for an extended period, typically decades or longer. Climate change may be due to natural internal processes or external forcing, or to persistent anthropogenic changes in the composition of the atmosphere or in land use. Climate resilient: Represents efforts undertaken to integrate the challenges posed by climate change and its impacts on agricultural systems. Climate Smart Agriculture: Agriculture that sustainably increases productivity, resilience (adaptation), reduces/removes greenhouse gases (mitigation), and enhances the achievement of national food security and development goals. Co-benefits: Multiple benefits in different fields resulting from one policy, strategy, or action plan. xii CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE Conservation Agriculture (CA): An approach to manage agro-ecosystems for improved and sustained productivity, increased profits and food security while preserving and enhancing the resource base and the environment. It is characterized by three linked principles namely, continuous minimum mechanical soil disturbance; permanent organic soil cover; and diversification of crop species grown in sequences and/or associations. Degradation: Refers to any change or disturbance in the environment, land or soil that is perceived to be deleterious or undesirable. Deforestation: The conversion of forest to another land use or the long-term reduction of tree canopy cover below the 10% threshold. Drought: The phenomenon that exists when precipitation is significantly below normal recorded levels, causing serious hydrological imbalances that often adversely affect land resources and production systems. Ecosystem services: Ecological processes or functions that have monetary or non-monetary value to individuals or society at large e.g. Productivity or biodiversity maintenance; provisioning services such as food, fibre, or fish; regulating services such as climate regulation or carbon sequestration; and cultural services such as tourism or spiritual and aesthetic values. Ecosystem: The interactive system formed from all living organisms and their abiotic (physical and chemical) environment within a given area. Enteric fermentation: Enteric fermentation is a natural part of the digestive process for many ruminant animals where anaerobic microbes called methanogens, decompose and ferment food present in the digestive tract producing compounds that are then absorbed by the host animal. A resulting by-product of this process is methane. Erosion: The process of removal and transport of soil and rock by weathering, mass wasting, and the action of streams, glaciers, waves, winds and underground water. Food and nutrition security: This exists when all people, at all times have physical, social and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life. Greenhouse gases: The atmospheric gases responsible for causing global warming and climate change. The major GHGs are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O). Less prevalent but very powerful greenhouse gases are hydro-fluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs) and Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6). Index-based insurance: An insurance product in which the insured in a specified geographical region, receive indemnity payments based on independently observable outcomes/parameters such as temperature, rainfall, vegetation quantity, crop yields among others which are used to determine premiums and payouts. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC): Established in 1988 by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), the IPCC surveys world-wide scientific and technical literature and publishes assessment reports that are widely recognized as the most credible existing sources of information on climate change. The IPCC also works on methodologies and responds to specific requests from the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) subsidiary bodies. CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE xiii Mitigation: In the context of climate change, human intervention to reduce the sources or enhance the sinks of greenhouse gases e.g. using fossil fuels more efficiently or electricity generation, switching to solar energy or wind power from fossil fuels for industrial processes and expanding forests and other “sinks” to remove greater amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions: A set of government prioritized actions aimed at reducing or limiting greenhouse gas emissions. Payment for Ecosystem Services: An economic instrument designed to provide positive incentives to users of agricultural land and those involved in coastal or marine management. These incentives are expected to result in continued or improved provision of ecosystem services, which in turn, will benefit society as a whole. Public Private Partnerships: Public Private Partnerships (PPP) are associations between government and the private sector through which private financing is utilized to perform a public function, at a profit to the private sector. Resilience: The ability of a system and its component parts to anticipate, absorb, accommodate, or recover from the effects of a hazardous event in a timely and efficient manner. Vulnerability: The degree to which a system is susceptible to or unable to cope with adverse effects of climate change, including climate variability and extremes. Vulnerability is a function of the character, magnitude, and rate of climate variation to which a system is exposed, its sensitivity, and its adaptive capacity. Watershed: A topographically delineated area that is drained by a stream system, i.e. the total land area that drains to some point on a stream or river. The watershed is a hydrologic unit that has been described and used as a physical-biological unit and a socio-economic-political unit for planning and managing of natural resources. xiv CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE CHAPTER ONE: KALRO- NARL Laboratories CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background Information The agriculture sector, comprising of crops, livestock, fisheries, agro-forestry and associated services plays a major role in Kenya’s economy. The sector is the largest contributor to Kenya’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), directly contributing about 25% and another 27% indirectly via linkages to agro-based industries and the service sector, giving an overall 52% contribution to GDP (UNEP, 2015). The crops, livestock and fisheries sub-sectors contribute 77.6%, 19.6% and 2.0% of the Agricultural GDP (AgGDP) respectively, and forestry contributing about 0.8%. The agriculture sector is mainly dominated by small-holder farmers with most production being carried out on farms averaging 0.2–3 ha. This small-scale production accounts for over 75% of the total agricultural output and over 70% of marketed agricultural produce. The agricultural sector contributes significantly to Kenya’s food security, income generation, employment creation and poverty reduction. The sector contributes 60% of the country’s income, accounts for over 65% of total exports, provides 60% of total employment, 18% of which is formal (UNEP, 2015). The agriculture sector is one of the priorities in the economic pillar of Kenya Vision 2030 (GoK, 2007), which aims at achieving an innovative, commercially oriented, modern agricultural sector through institutional reforms, increased productivity, land use transformation, increased access to markets and development of arid and semi-¬arid lands (ASALs). To respond to the impacts of climate change in agriculture, the sector developed the Kenya Climate Smart Agriculture Strategy (KCSAS) 2017-2026 (GoK, 2017a). The strategy sets out a detailed plan on how to “adapt to climate change, build resilience of agricultural systems while minimizing emissions for enhanced food and nutritional security and improved livelihoods”. This Framework therefore, outlines the envisaged actions towards the implementation of the KCSAS 2017-2026.
1.1.1 Alignment with Relevant National Policies The Kenya Climate Smart Agriculture Implementation Framework (KCSAIF) is aligned to the Constitution of Kenya 2010 (GoK, 2010a), Kenya Vision 2030 (GoK, 2007), Agricultural Sector Development Strategy 2010-2020 (GoK, 2010b), Climate Change Policy Framework 2015, National Climate Change Response Strategy (NCCRS) (GoK, 2010c), National Climate Change Action Plan 2013-2017 (NCCAP) (GoK, 2013a), Kenya National Adaptation Plan 2015-2030 (GoK, 2016a) and the Kenya Climate Smart Agriculture Strategy 2017-2026 (GoK, 2017a). The KCSAIF has been prepared to contribute to Kenya’s efforts to adapt and build resilience in agriculture and meet the commitments given under the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
1.2 Methodology The preparation of KCSAIF was through concerted efforts by the Government of Kenya to mainstream climate change considerations into policies, strategies, programmes and plans. It was developed through a consultative approach of a multi-stakeholder engagement led by the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries and Irrigation and the Ministry of Environment and Forestry. 2 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE The experts were drawn from relevant Ministries, Departments and Agencies, County Governments, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), Community Based Organizations (CBOs), Private Sector, Researchers and Academia. The process involved technical working sessions that were informed by review of the sector’s programmes, strategies and plans as well as analysis of options for agricultural sector growth in a changing climate. A national consultative workshops and a validation workshop were conducted with a wide range of stakeholders engaged including public and private sector, local and international NGOs, academia, farmer organizations, development partners, National and County government representatives among others. Further consultative sessions were held in six regional circuits with relevant County government’s representatives to ensure bottom up approach in development of priority actions for implementation in the framework. CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 3 CHAPTER TWO: 4 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS
2.1 Background The agricultural sector in Kenya is highly vulnerable to extreme weather events, climatic shocks, climatic changes and variability. Climate change is creating further stresses on food and water supply while further degrading the environment. It is estimated that between 2008 and 2011, drought which is a major climatic hazard in Kenya became more and more frequent and has caused losses of KSh. 699.3 billion (72.2% of total losses) in the livestock sector while the agKSh. 121.1 billion (12.5% of total losses). With the deteriorating climatic conditions primarily due to climate change, the annual growth rate of agricultural “value added” products has been on the decline (GoK, 2015). Extended periods of drought have negatively impacted on livelihood opportunities and community resilience in these areas leading to undesirable coping strategies that damage the environment and impair household nutritional status, further undermining long-term food security According to the Fifth Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Assessment Report of September 2013, the Earth’s temperature has increased by about 0.89°C in the period 1901 to 2012. The Farm Management Handbook of Kenya (Jaetzold et al., 2009) and the Atlas of Kenya’s Changing Environment (UNEP, 2009) indicates that Kenya’s average annual temperatures increased by 1°C between 1960 and 2003. In western Kenya, temperatures rose by 0.5°C between 1981 and 2004 while in the drier parts of the country the temperatures went up by 1.5°C over the same period. These changes have led to a shift of the upper altitudinal limits of Agro-Ecological Zone (AEZ) boundaries. Also, incremental changes in temperature and rainfall patterns are expected to contribute to biodiversity loss and emergence of new pests and diseases. Changes in the distribution, onset and cessation of rainfall seasons makes it increasingly difficult to plan agricultural operations resulting in lower crop yields in major production zones thus aggravating the food and nutrition insecurity. Frequent water shortages leads to decrease in the reliable cropping days, higher incidence of crop failure, and livestock and fish deaths. According to the Kenya Second National Communications, the agriculture sector is the largest contributor of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (NEMA, 2015). The largest share of emissions (CH4) originates from enteric fermentation associated with ruminant livestock, agricultural soils (N2O) and manure management. Emissions from agriculture are expected to rise due to increased food demand for the growing population leading to increased encroachment of forests through agricultural expansion. However, policy direction indicates that the focus of emissions management will not be on absolute emissions but on production efficiency, leading to increased output per unit of emission. This can make the agriculture sector be part of the solution to emission reduction if appropriate measures are taken. Kenya is classified as a water-scarce country whose natural endowment of freshwater is limited by an annual renewable freshwater supply of only 647 m3 per capita falling below the World Bank categorization of 1000 m3 per capita for a water scarce country (WB, 2000). With the increase in the frequency of extreme weather events, water scarcity will increase and the country will need to invest more on water resources management and conservation. Therefore, the country needs to be innovative with water conservation and harvesting technologies that assure safe water access to the Kenyan population for industrial, agricultural and domestic use. CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 5
2.2 Agricultural Production Kenya’s agriculture system has evolved through socio-political dynamics and reforms some of which have had negative impacts. The introduction of Structural Adjustment Programs (SAPs) in the 1980s which liberalized the input and output markets is one such example. The SAPs opened the markets to forces of demand and supply and therefore affecting prices of most agriculture commodities and quality of agricultural inputs and services. In 2003, the Government of Kenya developed the Economic Recovery Strategy for Wealth and Employment Creation 2003-2007 (ERS) (GoK, 2003) which was successfully implemented. In 2004 the Strategy for Revitalizing Agriculture 2004-2014 (SRA) (GoK, 2004), was developed and implemented as the sector vision to respond to the decline witnessed in the agriculture sector. During the implementation of the ERS, the overall economy recovered from a low growth of 0.5 % in 2002 to 7 % in 2007. Over the same period, the agriculture sector grew at an average rate of 3.9 % with a high growth rate of 7 % in 2005. During the first Medium Term Plan (MTP) 2008-2012 (GoK 2008), the sector recorded an average annual growth rate of 4.3 % against a target of 7 %. This was mainly due to adverse weather conditions in some years and increased costs of major inputs such as seeds, fertilizer and fuel. The value of agricultural output increased by KSh. 70,550 million per annum between 2008 and 2011 against a target of KSh. 80,000 million per year as set out in Kenya Vision 2030 and ASDS. The growth of the national economy is highly correlated to growth and development in agriculture, indicating the sector’s importance for the stimulation of overall economic growth (Figure 1). Figure 1: Agricultural GDP growth rate vs national GDP growth rate 1968-2012 Source: D’Alessandro (2015) Figure 2 shows that overtime, negative growth indices have been associated with extreme weather events, whose increasing frequency and magnitude have resulted to decline in agricultural “value-added” products (GoK, 2015). According to the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI), if climate change in Kenya is not addressed effectively, the economic costs of its impacts are estimated to be 3% of GDP per year by 2030 and possibly 5% by 2050 (SEI, 2009). 6 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE Figure 2: Agricultural growth index and major extreme events in Kenya 1980-2012 Source: GoK (2015)
2.2.1 Crop production The three main categories of crops in Kenya include food, industrial and horticultural crops. Food crops include; cereals (maize, wheat, sorghum, rice, millet,); pulses (beans, pigeon peas, cowpeas, chickpea, green grams); and roots and tubers (sweet potato, Irish potato, cassava, arrow root and yam) (GoK, 2010b). The major industrial crops are tea, coffee, pyrethrum, cotton and sugarcane among others. The horticultural crops includes cut flowers, vegetables (tomatoes, cabbage, kales, carrots), fruits (bananas, mangoes, nuts, herbs and spices). The relative importance of these different agricultural enterprises varies and their spatial and temporal distribution is also varied. Historical data from 1963 to 2012 (GoK, 2016b) shows that average maize and beans acreage has been increasing but yields have stabilized between 1.5 and 2 tons/ha since 1980’s. As regards the major industrial crops (tea, coffee, and sugar), the production level has been fairly stable as a result of increased area, but the yields per hectare have been on the decline. This has largely been attributed to changes in climate. The area under horticultural crops and the value of total production has been on an upward trend with value of horticultural exports growing by an average of 16% rising from KSh. 26.6 Billion in 2002 to KSh. 43.3 Billion in 2006 and to KSh. 65.2 Billion in 2007 (GoK, 2010b). However, the yields of most vegetables have been stagnant, except the indigenous vegetables. Only 10% of Kenya’s fresh agricultural produce finds its way into regional and other global markets with most of it being consumed locally. However due to the perishable nature of these products, producers and marketers incur post-harvest losses ranging between 30-75%. This is basically due to poor transport networks, low value addition, insufficient storage and preservation facilities among other factors.
2.2.2 Livestock production The livestock sub-sector employs about 50% of the agricultural labour force and is the main agricultural enterprise for over 10 million Kenyans living in the arid and semi-arid lands (ASALs). The ASALs which are dominantly inhabited by pastoralists, hosts about 70% of the national livestock herd with an estimated value of KSh. 70 Billion accounting approximately 40% of the Agricultural GDP. According to the 2009 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 7 census, the country’s livestock population was 17.5 million cattle, 27.7 million goats, 17 million sheep, 3 million camels, 31.8 million poultry, and 1.8 million donkeys while in 2016 the cattle were 20.5 million, goats 26.6 million, sheep 18.9 million, camels 3.2 million, poultry 36.6 million and donkeys 2 million (GoK, 2001). The livestock population growth in the country is driven by the rapidly increasing demand for livestock products due to increased population growth, urbanization and increasing incomes. The overall livestock population trends (largely based on estimates) across all species has been on the increase between 1963 and 2016 (Figure 3). The evident fluctuations in livestock population is closely related to severe drought events meaning that performance of the livestock sub-sector is highly affected and sensitive to rainfall. Figure 3: Livestock population trends from 1963 to 2016 Source: Livestock Sector Report (2016) Due to climate change effect on livestock, emerging livestock such as donkeys, crocodiles, ostrich, quails and guinea fowls are being promoted to bridge animal product deficit which can effectively contribute towards meeting animal protein requirements besides the common livestock value chains. Other significant resilient livestock enterprises are beekeeping and camel production. It is projected that production of livestock products is bound to increase with increasing human population, urbanization and incomes (Figure 4). 8 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE Figure Figure4:4:Production Productionofoflivestock livestockmeat, meat,milk milkand eggs and in in eggs Kenya Kenya Source: Livestock Source: LivestockSector SectorReport Report(2016) (2016) The magnitude of livestock production systems in The in Kenya, from extensive Kenya, ranging from extensive (nomadic) pastoralism, (semi-nomadic), mixed agro-pastoralism (semi-nomadic), mixedcrop/livestock crop/livestockfarming farmingsystems systemsare areoften often changing changingdue due to climate change and weather weather variability. variability.

Over the years, climate change has resulted in negative impacts on fish production due to warming of waters bodies, degradation of suitable breeding sites and receding of water levels of major freshwater bodies. The reduced water availability resulting from frequent droughts also limits aquaculture development.
2.2.4 Forests and agroforestry Statistics shows that forests contributed about 1.4% to Kenya’s GDP in 2014 without including the forestry’s contribution to household wood energy, non-timber products and ecosystem services. However, the forests are threatened by agricultural expansion and unsustainable use of forest resources which have led to increased pressure on forest resources. An analysis of change in forest cover over between 1990 and 2015 revealed an increase in afforestation and agroforestry activities (KFS, 2013). The data shows that land under forest has decreased by 311,000 ha equivalent to 25% loss of forest cover. However, there was a slight increase in forest cover from 6.01% in 2000 to 7.46% in 2015. This is equivalent to an average annual increase of 0.1% (Table 1). Table 1: Analysis of forest cover change between 1990 and 2015 Year Forest area Percent Annual Annual change (%) (‘000 ha) forest cover change (‘000 ha) 1990 4,724 7.98 2000 3,557 6.01 –1,167 –24.7 2005 4,047 6.84 490 13.8 2010 4,136 6.99 89,4 2.2 2015 (projected) 4,413 7.46 276 66.7 Source: KFS (2013) Deforestation and forest degradation is particularly prominent in arid and semi-arid areas where the increasing agricultural activities are claiming virgin forested landscapes. A major challenge in the country is how to harmonize national development and agricultural policies that seek to promote agricultural development while avoiding or mitigating against deforestation and forest degradation and associated greenhouse gas emissions. Agricultural intensification, farm forestry and agroforestry have been identified as viable and attractive options to reconcile agricultural development and forest protection. The basic principle is that increased yields per area, increased farm holding products and incomes, access to forest products within the farm holding and on-farm carbon sequestration will reduce the need for more land encroachment into forested areas. Farm forestry is also associated with additional benefits including easy access to forest products, restoration of degraded landscapes, carbon sequestration and strengthening community resilience to climate change. The development of Farm Forestry Rules (GoK, 2009) and the Kenya Climate Smart Agriculture Strategy 2017-26 (GoK, 2017a) provide the appropriate entry points for incentivizing tree- based interventions in agricultural landscapes.
2.2.5 Food consumption and nutrition Food security exists when people at all times have physical and economic access, sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and preferences. In Kenya, crops, livestock and fisheries constitute the people’s basket of food security assets. Most Kenyans live on diets based on staple crops 10 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE (mainly maize) that lack in nutrition diversity. Lack of access and availability of adequate and diversified diets results into various forms of nutrition related challenges. In view of this, efforts need to be enhanced to promote foods rich in micronutrients and includes fruits, vegetables, and livestock and fish products. Maize has been the major staple crop for majority of Kenyans. However, its production has been fluctuating over the years, which threatens household food security and income sources (GoK, 2015). The demand of maize in the country has been on the increase exceeding the domestic production. The shortfall in national production is met by maize imports (Figure 6). Figure 6: Kenya maize balance sheet between 2008 and 2014 Source: GoK (2015) It is projected that the gap between maize production and consumption in Kenya will widen as we approach year 2050 (Figure 7). Figure 7: Projected maize production and consumption in Kenya by year 2050 Source: GoK (2015) CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 11 Crops such as wheat, rice, beans, millet, cowpeas, green grams, pigeon peas, sweet potatoes, cassava, cocoyam and yams are also mainly produced for domestic consumption. However, climate change impacts are likely to lead to food deficit and increased food prices. This will reduce affordability of nearly all agricultural commodities, including basic staples and livestock products. Besides, the country’s per capita fish consumption increased from 3.2 Kg/person/ year in 2013 to 4.5 Kg/person/year in 2016 (GoK, 2016b).
2.3 Policy Environment Policy reforms are cited as one of the drivers of productivity gains experienced in the agricultural sector. The Government of Kenya has over the years developed policies and strategies to enhance agricultural growth, natural resource management and climate change interventions. These policy reforms substantially improve the economic environment for agriculture through improvements in pricing, trade, exchange rates, institutions and markets. Table 2 summarizes the key policy documents that the government has developed/ratified which are relevant to CSA implementation. Table 2: Main policies relevant to CSA implementation in Kenya Name of Policy/Legal Key thematic areas relevant to CSA implementation document Constitution of Kenya The constitution provides for the right to food security, clean and healthy 2010 environment, while emphasizing sustainable and productive management of land resources (e.g. maintenance of 10% tree cover of the country’s land cover). Kenya Vision 2030 The country’s development blueprint for 2008-2030 identifies agriculture as a key sector to boost economic growth. It aims to transform smallholder agriculture from low-productivity subsistence activities to an innovative, competitive agricultural sector. The vision is operationalized in a series of five-year Medium-Term Plans (MTPs), where MTP-III (2018-2022) outlines climate smart agriculture interventions. Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries Agricultural Sector Provides a framework for transforming agriculture into an innovative, commercially Development Strategy and modern viable sector. Kenya’s CAADP commits the government to 2010-2020 implementing the common vision of the sector, as described in the Agricultural Sector Development Strategy (ASDS) to address the agricultural development agenda in the country. Kenya Climate Smart Recognizes climate change as an emerging issue for food and nutrition security Agriculture Strategy and advocates for adaptation interventions that enhance farming communities’ 2017-2026 resilience to climate change induced effects. It also recognizes the role of mitigation in addressing climate change. Environment and Climate Change National Climate Change The strategy highlights agricultural interventions such as restoration of degraded Response Strategy (2010 ecosystems, provision of downscaled weather information, water harvesting for irrigation, protection of natural resource base (soil and water conservation techniques), agricultural waste management, agroforestry, research and dissemination of improved (drought tolerant, salt-tolerant, pest and disease resistant) crops, livestock and fisheries. 12 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE Name of Policy/Legal Key thematic areas relevant to CSA implementation document National Climate Change The NCCAP identifies climate smart practices that reduce climate vulnerability Action Plan 2013-2017 while reducing emissions and improving agricultural production potential. The practices include; agro-forestry and conservation tillage and management of agricultural wastes, improved management of grazing systems, biogas, livestock diversification, improved breeding of animals, drought tolerant crops, water harvesting, integrated soil fertility management, insurance schemes, price stabilization schemes for livestock, strategic food reserves, and mainstreaming climate change into agricultural extension services. National Climate Change The policy includes statements that enhance climate resilience and adaptive Framework Policy (2017) capacity, promote low-carbon growth, and mainstream climate change into planning processes. It notes the potential for the agriculture sector to reduce GHG emissions, enhance resilience and recommends investment to create green jobs. Climate Change Act The Act outlines climate resilience and adaptive capacity to promote low carbon (2016) growth, and to mainstream climate change into planning processes while developing incentives to promote climate resilient actions. National Adaptation Plan The Plan summaries short, medium and long-term actions that enhance resilience in (NAP) the agriculture, livestock and fisheries value chains. Nationally Determined The NDCs provide a framework in which the Kenya Government commits to reduce Contributions (NDCs) GHG emissions by 30% by 2030, compared to business as usual scenario (BAU), in addition to building resilience. The agriculture sector will enhance the resilience and contribute to reduction of GHG emissions by promoting climate smart agriculture. Sessional Paper No. 3 of The policy encourages efficient and sustainable utilization and management of land 2009 on National Land and land-based resources for provision of food security. Policy National Agricultural The policy points out that concerted efforts must be made to address the country’s Research System (NARS) vulnerability to climate change and other external shocks. It recommends putting in Policy (2012) place Virtual Research Platforms to handle emerging and cross-cutting issues that include natural resource and livelihood systems, bioethics, ecosystems resilience, integrated natural resources management and climate change among others. It also mentions that redefined research agenda should give priority to climate change mitigation and adaptation and continue to cover sustainable use and conservation of natural resources (land, forest, flora and fauna) among other priorities. Livestock Policy 2008/ The policy proposes to set up measures to institutionalize and address drought Sessional Paper No.2 related challenges through adoption of the necessary mitigation interventions. Further, it proposes to create a favorable environment and mechanisms to strengthen capacity of the existing early warning systems and ensure that the operations of such systems are well coordinated to cover all disaster vulnerable areas adequately.

2.4 Agricultural Growth and Development
2.4.1. Land degradation and declining soil health In many parts of the country, demand on land for agricultural development and pressures from a rapidly growing population have led to unprecedented land use changes. As a result, unsustainable land use is causing land degradation resulting into loss of land productivity. Land degradation (both chemical and physical) manifests itself in many forms such as soil erosion, loss of soil fertility, salinity, reduced vegetation cover, reduced biodiversity and ecosystem services and reduced livestock carrying capacity. The impacts of land degradation are closely linked to poverty and food insecurity.
2.4.2. Agricultural finance and investments Agriculture offers the best prospect for economic growth and development in Kenya given its contribution to the GDP, government revenue and benefits to both urban and rural households. However, available statistics show that attention to the agricultural sector is inadequate in terms of both government budgetary allocation and resource utilization. On average, Kenya spent over 10% of its total government budget on agriculture in the first decade after independence. This declined to an average of 7.5% in the period between 1980 and 1989 and thereafter dropped to 3% in the 1990 to 2000 period, and to 1.2% in 2000/1 then increased to 6.5% in 2008/9. Budget allocation declined from 5.1% in 2009/10 to 3.6% in 2012/13 (IEA, 2014). Therefore, the budget allocation to agriculture sector falls short of meeting the Maputo Declaration of budget allocation of 10% to the agricultural sector. Overtime time, the development partner’s contribution to the domestic expenditure has increased from 1.9% in 2009/10 to 8.2% in 2012/13 to fill the gaps created by budget deficits (Figure 8). Figure 8: Proportion of national government and donor contributions to the agriculture sector budget Source: IEA (2014) The private sectors including financial institutions have been supporting investments related to agriculture overtime. However, the agricultural sector is perceived to be high risk hence, there has been low investments by formal financial institutions. 14 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE The total agricultural sector budget allocation decreased from KSh. 56.46 Billion in the financial year (FY) 2014/15 to KSh. 40.57 Billion in FY 2015/16 and increased to KSh. 49.96 Billion in FY 2016/17. The decrease in FY 2016/17 was due to transfer of the Irrigation and Drainage Infrastructure Programme to the Ministry of Water and Irrigation. In terms of actual expenditure, it decreased from KSh. 46.92 Billion in FY 2014/15 to KSh. 36. 32 Billion FY 2015/16 then increased to KSh. 41.09 Billion in 2016/17. The overall sector absorption rate was 83% in the FY 2014/15 compared to 90% in the FY 2015/16 and 82% in the FY 2016/17. The Second Medium Term Investment Plan (MTIP) 2013-2017 (GoK, 2013b) outlines the government’s investment strategy for improving the situation through the ASDS 2010-2020 which is aligned to CAADP (GoK, 2010b). In implementing MTIP, the government seeks to prioritize investments across the country’s major agro-ecological zones.
2.4.3 Extension and agro-weather advisory services
2.4.3.1 Extension services The extension service is one of the critical change agents required in transforming subsistence farming to modern and commercial agriculture in order to promote household food security, improve income and reduce poverty levels. The agricultural extension in Kenya dates back to the early 1900’s when the government through the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries and Irrigation provided the bulk of extension services to both small-scale and large-scale farmers. The most notable success was in the dissemination of hybrid maize technology in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. However, after the implementation of structural adjustment programs (SAPs) in the 1980’s, the government support to extension services decreased. To respond to these challenges, the government formulated the National Agricultural Extension Policy (NAEP) in 2001 and subsequently the National Agricultural Sector Extension Policy (NASEP) in 2012 to guide improvements in delivery of extension services. The policies have been implemented through programmes such as the National Agricultural and Livestock Extension Program 2000-2005 (NALEP) and the Agricultural Sector Development Support Programme (ASDSP). NALEP recognized the need to diversify, decentralize and strengthen the provision of extension services to increase their sustainability and relevance to farmers. The overall aim of ASDSP is to support the implementation of the ASDS 2010-20 with a goal of transforming Kenya’s agricultural sector into an innovative, commercially oriented, competitive and modern industry that will contribute to poverty reduction, improved food security and equity in rural and urban Kenya. Through the Constitution of Kenya 2010, the extension services were devolved to the county governments while provision of policy framework, capacity building and standards development remained the mandate of the national government. Farmers in Kenya need a wide range of advisory services to adapt to climate change and take advantage of viable options with manageable levels of risk. The extension services require improvement through public private partnerships for climate smart agriculture practices and technologies. There is therefore need for policy review and development of extension services delivery standards. Thus devolved extension services need to be strengthened, harmonized, standardized, prioritized and streamlined to meet its objectives in service delivery to the farmers.
2.4.3.2 Agro-weather advisory services The Kenya Meteorological Department (KMD) provides downscaled weather forecasts which it uses together with other relevant organizations and institutions to develop agro-weather related advisories. These advisories are meant to increase the adaptive capacity of agriculture value chain actors by improving access to information on weather and climate patterns. The expected outcomes include improved farm management capabilities under conditions of climate risks where farmers will plan and manage weather CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 15 risks, maximize productivity and minimize the environmental impacts of farming practices. Some of the tools used are Short Messaging Service (SMS), Interactive Voice Response (IVR), seasonal print bulletins and radio programmes. However, the service encounters challenges related to infrastructure, technology, inadequate dissemination and limited integration of climate information in agricultural research and development.
2.5 Context of Climate Smart Agriculture Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) offers an excellent opportunity for agricultural growth. It however, requires collaborative actions among the various actors including: National and County Governments, farmers, private sector, civil society organizations (CSOs) and other value chain actors. The context in which CSA is to be applied in Kenya requires an integrated approach that aims to transform and re-orientate agricultural systems to sustainably; (i) increase productivity; (ii) adapt and build resilience to the likely effects of climate change, and, (iii) reduce and/or remove GHG emissions without compromising productivity. The CSA objectives are meant to enhance the achievements of national food security and development goals through: a) Scaling up/out of proven technologies and practices for resilient livelihoods related to efficient soil and nutrients management, water and on-farm energy resources. b) Conservation and sustainable use of agro-genetic resources. c) Sustainable intensification of crop, forage, agroforestry, livestock and fisheries production. d) Adaptation and mitigation practices in crops, livestock, agroforestry and fisheries production systems. e) Efficient management of agricultural commodity value chains. f) Identifying opportunities to leverage climate finance for CSA, including social protection and safety nets where economic models are not viable. g) Knowledge sharing and effective learning, strengthening key institutions and systems for CSA initiatives. h) Mainstreaming CSA elements into national policies and development planning process. 16 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE CHAPTER THREE: CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 17 Beekeeping enterprise; a good example for building resilience and income generation FRAMEWORK DESCRIPTION
3.1 Introduction The KCSAIF is designed to address impacts of climate change challenges to agricultural growth and development. The Framework is aligned to the government’s commitments and obligations to guide the transition of the country towards a low-carbon climate resilient development pathway. The Framework aims at supporting the implementation of the KCSAS 2017-2026 whose objectives are to; (i) enhance adaptive capacity and resilience of farmers, pastoralists and fisher-folk to the adverse impacts of climate change; (ii) develop mechanisms that minimize greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural production systems; (iii) create an enabling regulatory and institutional framework; and (iv) address cross- cutting issues that adversely impact CSA.
3.2 Goal and Objectives of the Framework Goal The overall goal of the Framework is to achieve a long-term national low carbon climate resilient development pathway, whilst realizing the development goals of Kenya Vision 2030. Objectives The Framework has four objectives: 1. To develop a sustainable system for achieving a coordinated, coherent and cooperative governance of climate resilience and low carbon growth in the agricultural sector. 2. To mainstream CSA to support the transformation of Kenya’s agricultural sector into an innovative, commercially oriented, competitive and modern industry that contributes to poverty reduction and improved food security in Kenya. 3. To reduce vulnerability of agriculture systems by cushioning them against the impacts of climate change and reduce GHG emissions where possible. 4. To strengthen communication systems on CSA extension and agro-weather issues
3.3 Framework Implementation Components The objectives of the Framework are to be realized through implementation of actions designed around the following four components: 1. Institutional coordination. 2. Agricultural productivity and integration of value chain approach. 3. Building resilience and appropriate mitigation actions. 4. Communication systems on CSA extension and agro-weather issues. The rationale of each component, sub-components and proposed actions are outlined below.
3.3.1 Component 1: Institutional coordination Rationale This component supports the establishment of an inclusive institutional framework for improved agricultural sector CSA coordination and harmonization, and an enabling policy and institutional environment for the realization of the CSA objectives in general. The component is designed to strengthen inter-ministerial, national and county governments, private sector and CSOs, development partners and other non-state actor’s coordination on CSA related issues. 18 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE It will enable support towards enhancing capacity for cross-sectoral planning, communication within and between ministries, government institutions with different mandates with regard to CSA issues. Further, the component will enable sector institutions to contribute to and take responsibility for sector-wide coordination and implementation for more effective delivery of their CSA related mandates. The sub-components are: Sub-component 1.1: Inter-Ministerial and County Government Coordination. Sub-component 1.2: Partnerships with Private Sector and Civil Society Organizations.

This will help to strengthen the capacity for cross-sectoral planning, enhance communication within and between ministries with different mandates. The expected impacts will be effective coordination among national sector ministries, county governments, development partners and other actors leading to efficiency and increased return on investments. Summary of Actions: • Develop and implement an inter-ministerial communications strategy with respect to inter- ministerial coordination on matters relating to climate smart agriculture. • Introduce a biannual joint planning and review session between inter-ministerial team and the county government executive and chief officers responsible for agriculture. • Build capacity of national and county government staff in cross-sectoral planning and implementation. • Strengthen policy review and analytical capacity at the national and county levels of government. • Strengthen the planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation at the national and county levels of government. • Establish a framework for disseminating CSA programmatic planning and implementation as well as annual reports and studies and receiving feedback at national and county levels of government. • Annual and biannual Intergovernmental Technical Conference on status of KCSAIF implementation.
3.3.1.2 Sub-component 1.2: Government partnerships with private sector and civil society organizations The aim of this sub-component is to strengthen and create platforms for partnership for both levels of governments with a broad range of private sector and CSOs and other actors on CSA issues. This will offer incentives to the private sector to invest in CSA and provide a strong linkage mechanism for sharing of information, knowledge and skills. The direct impact of the sub-component will be establishment of a strong platform that will enhance adoption of technological innovations and complementary actions. CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 19 Summary of Actions: • Engage the private sector to identify opportunities for increased investments in CSA. • Organize regular consultative meetings with private sector and CSOs on the planning and implementation of the CSA Framework. • Identify appropriate incentives to catalyse private sector and CSO investments in CSA activities. • Develop and publicize country CSA programmes to private sector and CSOs with a view to identifying areas for their collaboration and participation. • Establish communication channels for consultations between private sector and CSOs in the programmatic planning and implementation of CSA activities at the national and county levels of government. • Promote CSA to agro-pastoralists, fisher folks and farmer organizations and cooperatives.
3.3.1.3 Sub-component 1.3: Programmatic Coordination with Development Partners To enhance programmatic coordination, the Government of Kenya and development partners will provide a framework for coordinated responses to policy initiatives and development of a harmonized monitoring and evaluation. This will enable the sector to have a shared vision, facilitate priority setting and establish common CSA funding mechanisms. Summary of Actions: • Establish a framework for coordination and collaboration between the two levels of governments and the development partners on programmatic planning and implementation of CSA initiatives. • Establish a harmonised M&E mechanism and reporting for CSA implementation. • Establish a joint investment and funding mechanism for CSA in both levels of government.
3.3.1.4 Sub-component 1.4: Research-Extension Liaison framework The sector experiences fragmented research and extension projects/programmes on CSA. This sub- component aims at establishing mechanisms to coordinate CSA research and extension, and to promote collaboration and networking among public and private research institutions. The direct impact of the sub-component will be efficient research and extension services. Summary of Actions: • Develop an institutional framework for farmer-extension-research and public private partnership engagement to set the research agenda from the grassroots level. • Establish a platform through which researchers will have regular contacts with stakeholders and other users at the national, county and farm levels. • Prepare CSA information packages and disseminate them to stakeholders. • Promote use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) in disseminating research findings. • Conduct participatory research work on improved technologies and practices that is informed by needs of users and agro-ecological zones along the value chains. 20 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE • Conduct on-farm research into low-cost appropriate technologies and practices and deliver them as packages. • Build the capacity of extension, producers and other stakeholders in the use of existing/new/ improved CSA technologies and practices. • Support development of private sector input and appropriate CSA technologies outreach and distribution networks. • Intensify field demonstration, climate field schools, field days, study tours to enhance adoption of existing, new and/or improved CSA technologies and practices. • Intensify use of ICT and other methods of dissemination. • Establish systems for research prioritization by counties and other stakeholders.
3.3.1.5 Sub-component 1.5: CSA research funding This sub-component proposes ways of improving research funding for development of CSA technologies and innovations. The expected impact is increased CSA innovations and adoption of appropriate technologies by farmers and other actors. Summary of Actions: • Sensitize public and private sector to invest in CSA research. • Incentivize private sector investments in research, development and innovations. • Establish partnership with development partners to support CSA research. • Capacity build research institutions on CSA technologies and innovations development. • Establish coordination systems to steer CSA research efforts and activities. • Develop an information flow mechanism among CSA research stakeholders.
3.3.1.6 Sub-component 1.6: Appropriate CSA policies, strategies and regulations This sub-component aims at supporting the establishment of an enabling regulatory framework for CSA. The sector has inadequate regulatory framework to provide guidance and incentives for CSA implementation. The expected outcomes will be appropriate sector CSA policies, strategies and regulations that provides enabling environment for climate change response. Summary of Actions: • Sensitization of stakeholders. • Review and catalogue policies, strategies and regulations and identify need for revision. • Support revision and formulation of appropriate policies, strategies and regulations. • Lobbying for changes/adoption in the policies and regulations. • Facilitate roll-out of adopted policies, strategies and regulations. • Domesticate relevant CSA policies, strategies and regulation in counties. • Develop appropriate policies that enhance production of adequate and diversified food products. • Develop legislation and systems to protect and cushion small scale farmers and producers from unfair competition from corporate entities. CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 21
3.3.1.7 Sub-component 1.7: CSA data collection, information management and dissemination systems This sub-component aims at enhancing CSA information and communication systems. There are weak mechanisms for collecting data and information on climate change which make it difficult to track progress, share results and access information on CSA. Under this sub-component, enhanced availability of relevant and harmonized CSA information and communication across the sector will be established. Summary of Actions: • Support strengthening of existing CSA monitoring and evaluation (M&E) and dissemination of information. • Establish KCSAIF M&E system at all levels, ensuring that it is aligned with the agricultural sector M&E system, National Climate Change Strategy and Action Plan (NCCSAP) M&E system and National Integrated Monitoring and Evaluation Systems (NIMES) as necessary. • Facilitate development of CSA communication strategy. • Facilitate establishment of inventory of existing climate change information and communication systems in the agricultural sector and assessment of their appropriateness for different users. • Facilitate design of agricultural sector climate information management system based on existing systems. • Collaborate with other service providers in continuous updating of existing agricultural sector climate information systems, and production and distribution of other information materials. • Facilitate development/strengthening of interactive ICT platforms to provide agricultural sector climate information on value chains, service providers, etc. • Support up-scaling on the use of mobile telephony in disseminating agricultural sector climate change extension messages and collection of climate data.
3.3.1.8 Sub-component 1.8: Strengthening institutional capacities The main focus of this sub-component is to strengthen the institutional capacities for implementation of the Framework. The expected outputs are improved performance for efficient and harmonized implementation of CSA among sector institutions. Summary of Actions: • Facilitate capacity needs assessment on CSA issues at national and county levels of government. • Facilitate development of CSA capacity building approach and plan for the sector which integrates gender and social inclusiveness. • Facilitate roll-out of capacity building plans and approaches. • Support training institutions/service providers to develop CSA training programmes relevant to the emergin g needs of the counties.
3.3.2 Component 2: Agricultural productivity and integration of value chain approach Rationale This component is expected to play a major role in ensuring improved agricultural productivity along the value chains. This is aimed at building resilience of agricultural value chain players through use of adaptive 22 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE technologies and enhanced market linkages. The component will also promote commercialization, food safety and quality control standards along the value chains. The specific sub-components are: Sub-component 2.1: Access to and use of adaptive technologies. Sub-component 2.2: Increase area under efficient irrigation. Sub-component 2.3: Value addition and products development. Sub-component 2.4: Competitiveness and markets access for climate smart products enhanced. Sub-component 2.5: Food and feed storage and distribution.
3.3.2.1 Sub-component 2.1: Access to and use of adaptive technologies This sub-component aims to enhance adoption of improved and adaptive crop, livestock and aquaculture technologies. The sector experiences low use of improved technologies and practices, use of inefficient technologies and practices, increased incidences of diseases and pests, inadequate access and availability, and low use of integrated water resources management (IWRM).

CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 31 CHAPTER Four: 32 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE COORDINATION AND IMPLEMENTATION MECHANISM
4.1 Coordination This Framework will be implemented within the Joint Consultation and Cooperation Mechanism for the Agricultural Sector (JCCMAS) which is in line with Intergovernmental Relations Act 2012 (Figure 9). IGR Summit Intergovernmental Forum on Agriculture (IGF) Joint Agriculture Intergovernmental Secretariat Joint Agricultural Sector (JAS-IGS) Technical Working Groups (JAS-TWGs) Figure 9: Technical reporting and information sharing through the Joint Consultation and Cooperation Mechanism for the Agricultural Sector
4.1.1 Intergovernmental Forum on Agriculture (IGF) The IGF which is convened by the Cabinet Secretary (CS) responsible for agriculture and irrigation and co- chaired by Chair of the Council of Governors will be expected to provide a platform for CSA stakeholder’s consultations and cooperation. It will also approve and make recommendations on the CSA programmes, strategies, plans and performance monitoring instruments.
4.1.2 The Joint Agriculture Sector Steering Committee (JASSCOM) This committee will provide regular direction for sector transformation initiatives agreed between the two levels of government and makes follow-up of IGF meetings. It will also oversee the functioning of the Joint Agriculture Sector Intergovernmental Secretariat (JAS-IGS) and the Joint Agriculture Sector Technical Working Groups (JAS-TWGs). The committee will be expected to ensure that CSA decisions and resolutions approved by IGF are circulated and implemented by relevant entities within the two levels of government.
4.1.3 Joint Agriculture Sector Technical Working Groups (JAS-TWGs) The JAS-TWGs will aim at providing a uniform platform for intergovernmental technical consultation based on the principle of equitable representation at the two levels of government to enhance its effectiveness. It is expected that implementation of the CSA Framework will be aligned within the six JAS-TWGs. These JAS-TWGs will be expected to deliberate on CSA issues in the areas of responsibility of each working group. They will also prepare and submit CSA reports and resolutions to the Joint Agriculture Sector Steering Committee. CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 33
4.1.4 Climate Change Units (CCUs) The Climate Change Act 2016 Section 15 provides for public entities to coordinate mainstreaming of climate change issues into sectoral strategies, plans, programmes and projects. Further the Act requires that each state department and National government public entity to establish a CCU. The CCUs will be charged with coordinating implementation of CSA activities at the national and county levels. The units will be expected to communicate decisions of JAS-TWGs to implementing entities. Further, they will be expected to provide technical support to the management and CSA implementing stakeholders including reporting.
4.2 Linkages and Partnerships with other Key Actors The interventions of KCSAIF will be implemented under pluralistic and partnership-based principles. In addition, relevant partners will provide inputs towards defined interventions among them national and county agriculture departments, other government organizations, research institutes, farmer organizations, private sector organizations and CSOs. The relevant Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) at the two levels of government are expected to support the implementation of various components of the Framework. They will be responsible for mainstreaming and upscaling CSA across their functions and processes including consideration in performance contracting. They will be expected to play a key role in provision of an enabling policy environment, provision and mobilization of resources and technical expertise for implementation of the KCSAIF. The farmer organizations consisting of cooperatives and farmer groups will be key in identification, prioritizing and implementation of agriculture interventions. They will be expected to play a major role in awareness creation, community and resource mobilization, coordination of investments and partnerships among stakeholders for implementation of the KCSAIF. The private sector is a strategic partner in the agriculture sector development and is therefore expected to participate in implementation of the KCSAIF. The private sector will facilitate/support value chain development, provision of business and services through entrepreneurship investments, input supply, provision of credit and insurance services among others. Through PPP mechanisms, the private sector will engage with both levels of government to implement specific aspects of interest/specialization in KCSAIF. The Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) will play an important role in advocacy, capacity building and support implementation of CSA interventions. The research institutions and academia will be key in technology development, validation and evaluation, capacity building and strategic input support. The development partners are significant players in promoting CSA and to a larger extent low carbon resilient agriculture. They will be expected to support financing and resource mobilization, technical expertise and capacity building. Further, the development partners will assist in building networks that enhance access to global climate finance to support CSA.
4.3 Implementation of KCSAIF After the launch of KCSAIF, some key actions necessary to facilitate its implementation will be carried out. These include sensitization of stakeholders, prioritization of actions at both national and county levels as well as resources mobilization for implementation of the prioritized actions. The capacity of stakeholders on CSA will need to be enhanced and the necessary links for implementation of the framework at national, county and community levels will be established. A monitoring and evaluation (M&E) framework including MRV will be developed and implemented throughout the implementation period through participatory approaches by all relevant stakeholders at the various levels. All activities to 34 CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE be implemented including monitoring and reporting for the KCSAIF will be coordinated by the National and County Ministries/Departments of Agriculture and Irrigation CCUs who will be reporting through the JASSCOM.
4.3.1 Monitoring, Evaluation and Reporting The aim of the KCSAIF M&E framework will be to guide coordinated and efficient data collection, analysis, use and provision of information that will provide indications of impact, outcomes and outputs. The monitoring will measure CSA achievements at the activity and output levels while the evaluation will measure achievements at the outcomes and impact levels. The M&E will be carried out by the two levels of government together with other relevant stakeholders spearheaded by the climate change units. The M&E plan will be agreed upon between the national and county governments through the JASSCOM thematic working group on monitoring, evaluation and communication which will also be responsible for the design and implementation of the M&E system. The M&E will be based on Logical Framework Approach (LFA) and will be aligned to the sector M&E framework. Some specific key indicators are presented in the KCSAIF log frame (Annex I) which the climate change units will be expected to adopt in addition to developing others for presentation to the technical working group (TWG) for consideration and approval. Wherever possible, data will be disaggregated by gender to allow for social inclusivity principle in CSA interventions. This will be done on quarterly basis and the JAS-TWG monitoring, evaluation and communication will coordinate data analysis and consolidation of reports. The KCSAIF envisages that evaluation will be done at various levels as follows: (i) Baseline surveys to collect baseline data on vulnerability levels and low-carbon development path way in the implementation of CSA actions. This survey will provide information base against which CSA activities will be monitored and assessed for effectiveness during implementation and after the activities. The analysis of baseline data will be disaggregated per county for assessing the effects and impacts across gender and other social economic aspects. (ii) Mid-term (five years) review aimed at evaluating the relevance, effectiveness and efficiency of implementation of the KCSAIF against indicators in the log frame. The review will assess the implementation approaches, strategies, organizational set up and partnership arrangements. The review will make recommendations for the remaining period largely to help enhance implementation and improve performance. The review will also consider technical aspects of resilience and low- carbon development in KCSAIF. (iii) Terminal (ten years) evaluation will be conducted at the end of the Framework period to analyze impacts and learning experiences.
4.3.2 Reporting The climate change units will be responsible for preparing relevant reports on the progress of implementation of the KCSAIF approved work plans. The reports will also include assessment of processes, results and outcomes and analysis of factors affecting progress during the reporting period. The reports from CCUs will be presented to the JAS-TWGs which will facilitate preparation of intergovernmental CSA reports for presentation to the JASSCOM. The JASSCOM will review and adopt the reports before forwarding them to the IGF for endorsement and for submissions as provided for in the Intergovernmental Relations Act and Kenya Climate Change Act 2016. The frequency of the reporting will be annual or as may be required. CLIMATE RESILIENT, LOW CARBON AGRICULTURE 35
4.3.3 Quality Assurance Quality assurance will ensure that standards set for implementation and management of the implementation framework are adhered to in order to achieve the desired results. The KCSAIF management structure comprising committees as contained in the JASSCOM will provide advisory role in supporting interventions that ensure quality assurance. The activities in the logical framework will provide the basis for development of a tool against which quality assurance will be based.
4.3.4 Budget The KCSAIF investments are aligned with sector investment priorities and linked to climate vulnerability and priority areas. The total base case budget requirement to implement the programme is KSh. 167.31 Billion up to the year 2027 (Table 3).
