Under the KOICA-funded Green Rehabilitation Investment Project for Karakalpakstan Republic to Address Impacts of the Aral Sea Crisis (Aral Sea GRIP), the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) has introduced Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) models to drive sustainable development in agriculture. These models are implemented in the project’s four districts—Bozataw, Kegeyli, Chimbay, and Karauzyak—and serve as practical demonstrations for farmers, local entrepreneurs, and other stakeholders.
The project equips the selected farms and forestry enterprises with water-saving technologies and strategically plants windbreaks to enhance agricultural productivity while mitigating climate risks.
By showcasing the potential of CSA models through these demonstration sites, GGGI aims to empower farmers and entrepreneurs to adopt sustainable practices on their own farms, contributing to the long-term resilience of Karakalpakstan’s agricultural sector!
