Project Objectives

2. Development of inclusive business cases for 50 agri-business SMEs and 30 cooperatives.
3. Climate resilient sustainable food production practiced on 600,000 hectares.
The project is hinged on three key pillars of climate smart agriculture:
• Adaptation: reduce the exposure of farmers and agri-businesses to short-term risks, while also strengthening their resilience by building capacity to adapt and prosper in the face of climatic shocks.
• Mitigation: reduce greenhouse gases emissions, increase water and energy efficiencies.
The
Climate Innovation and Investment Facility (CIIF) is a fund that is
used by the CRAFT project to identify and support inclusive climate
smart innovative business models that deliver both commercial benefits
for the private sector and developmental benefits for the low-income
population. These ventures have specific focus on small holder farmers
(including women and youth) in the climate smart agriculture food
production and supply improvements.
CRAFT recognizes the utilization of energy in different forms across agricultural value chains for irrigation, cooling, drying, and milling among others, and is considered a key driver influencing agricultural production, post-harvest handling, processing, and distribution/transportation. Energy related costs often represent one of the highest agribusiness operating costs, attributed especially by inefficient energy utilization and limited adoption of affordable cleaner alternatives across the agricultural value chain. To be competitive and adapt to the risks associated with climate change, future agricultural/food systems must be accompanied by better, cleaner, and more sustainable energy processes. Increasing the uptake of renewable energy and energy efficiency solutions in prioritized value chains with focus on the business cases, is therefore an important element in CRAFT enabling agribusiness productivity and business improvement.
Job Description
