The Climate Resilient Agriculture Production Programme is a collaboration between the Departments of Agricultural Research in Lesotho and Botswana to undertake a climate risk assessment (previously vulnerability assessment) of sustainable agriculture and climate-smart agriculture (CSA) best practice production in the countries, using the Sorghum value chain as a reference case where necessary.
The call for participatory approaches, including planning and implementation of crossbreeding activities in Africa, emanates from the many failed experiences in the crossbreeding sector, some of these have been directly linked with the absence or weak participation of stakeholders in the crossbreeding and associated efforts.
Many African countries argue that investments in developing local animal genetic resources (AnGR) breeds could benefit small-scale, subsistence or resource poor farmers, and as well contribute to the development of the poorest regions of the Continent.
Indigenous peoples and local communities (IPLC) in Africa are considered the original custodians of their AnGR.
