Description This case story outlines the results of a national research initiative that utilized the
Climate-Smart Agriculture Prioritization Framework (CSA-PF) to inventory, assess, and
prioritize CSA options with stakeholders for various subnational regions. The CSA‑PF
is a four-phase process, which was implemented in Vietnam under the direction of
the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. In the first phase, a compendium
of CSA practices was created, characterizing over 807 farms using 111 categories of
practices across Vietnam. The practices were then analyzed twice using a set of
CSA indicators, at first rapidly by experts to select 13 promising practices (11 crop,
2 livestock), and the second time through detailed surveys to better understand the
trade‑offs (Phase 2). Eight practices were selected for detailed cost-benefit analyses,
which were carried out in Phase 3 by the Institute of Policy and Strategy for Agriculture
and Rural Development. Economic evaluations were conducted in specific productions
systems in regions of high importance to the agriculture sector and vulnerable to
climate change (Red River Delta, Mekong River Delta, and South Central Coast). It was
found that rice-shrimp rotations, integrated crop management in rice, and mixing rice
crops and mushroom growing were some of the most profitable and low-risk options.
The fourth phase, which is ongoing, will bring stakeholders together to establish
investment portfolios of CSA priorities and action plans. All previous analyses will
be utilized to prioritize and discuss strategies for minimizing trade-offs, increasing
synergies between practices, avoiding or overcoming barriers to adoption, and linking
with end user priorities.
