Sumario:Together with the World Bank and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), a number of international organizations are promoting innovation in agricultural systems to combat natural disasters like extreme weather, drought, floods, rising sea levels, increased snowmelt, and changes in the amount and timing of water used for irrigation. The impacts of climate change on food security are undeniably significant, and they are expected to get worse over the coming years as a result of population growth, economic development, urbanization, and the recurrence of natural disasters. In today’s agribusiness, particularly horticultural agribusinesses such as vegetables and decorative plants, climate-smart greenhouse is not a novel concept. In terms of GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions, CSA (Climate Smart Agriculture) can contribute. These days, climate-smart greenhouse (CSG) can actually connect adaptation and mitigation at all scales and helps farmers take the lead in combating climate change. The research on CSG emphasizes the need for innovative thinking to harmonize policy and practices in a way that is complementary. Additionally, CSG has to have a better grasp of how well-equipped the consultants or extension services are in each nation to assist with training farmers in climate-smart practices. Additionally, new financial tools are required to enable global, national, and local transformations.
