The study on “Climate-smart agriculture in Vietnam’s coffee sector: Adoption, Barriers, and Opportunities in the Central Highlands” was conducted as part of the project “De-risking coffee from climate disasters: Upscaling coffee climate protection insurance for Vietnamese smallholder coffee producers”, funded by The InsuResilience Solution Fund. This study provides an evidence base to support the project implementation by accessing the current extent of CSA adoption among coffee farmers in the CH, identifies its key determinants, and examines the barriers and enabling factors for shaping effective implementation. The research also investigates the perceptions, needs, and priorities of farmers and relevant stakeholders to propose context-specific strategies for scaling CSA in the region. The findings directly contribute to project’s objective of improving income and climate risk resilience of coffee smallholder famers through adoption of CSA and Good Agricultural Practices (GAP).
