CRAFT works through and with private and public sector partners to create an enabling environment based on field evidence for wide-scale adoption of Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) practices at all stages of the agriculture value chain.

The project’s interventions are embedded in inclusive and climate responsive investments that strengthen the performance of agribusiness and cooperatives across seven value chains in Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania, notably: green grams, potato, beans, sesame, sunflower, soybean and sorghum.

The implementation strategy is based on complementary interventions at three levels: (a) farming systems, (b) inclusive value chains, and (c) the enabling environment.
