Description
This session will discuss and distribute information on identifying stakeholder perspectives and knowledge gaps on what climate-smart farming is, how to support farmers transitioning to more climate-smart farming, and discuss simple approaches farmers can take to have a more climate-smart operation (e.g., cover crops, no-tillage, amendments, etc.). The panelists will engage the audience to receive farmer feedback on the concept of climate-smart farming and its relevance to organic production.
