This book assesses and identifies solutions with special relevance for

smallholder farmers: DRR good practices that work at farm-level and

which, with small investments, can have significant positive impact on

the resilience of their livelihoods. It evaluates the cost-effectiveness and

socio-ecological suitability of different specific DRR interventions, with

the intention of providing decision-makers and farmers both with reliable

assessments that can guide their decisions around DRR investment. For

smallholder farmers and development actors alike, the study findings can

help prioritize options among a multitude of available DRR interventions,

taking into account local contexts and specific needs. For policymakers,

this study is particularly valuable, as it offers cost–benefit figures for

individual good practices as well as for combined interventions that are

based on actually-observed impacts. The report also estimates the costs

and benefits of upscaling selected good practices, thus providing insights

to decision-makers on the relevance of establishing enabling conditions

for replication beyond study sites.
