Implication

Cross-sectional survey finds climate-smart agriculture improves food security in coastal farming households, indicating extension services can enhance climate resilience.

Key Points

To identify factors influencing the adoption of climate-smart agriculture (CSA) practices and assess their effect on household food security in climate-vulnerable coastal regions.
Conducted structured interviews with N=327 farmers across three coastal districts of Bangladesh.
Modeled determinants of adoption and impacts on food security using binary probit and ordered probit econometric analyses.
Early planting of rice was the most widely adopted CSA technique, utilized by 65% of surveyed farmers.
CSA adoption was significantly and positively influenced by annual household income, contact with extension services, and CSA awareness.
Adoption of each additional CSA practice increased the probability of household food security by 4.3%.
