Climate Smart Agriculture main pillars
• Contribution to reducing the prevalence of poverty and under-nutrition
• sustainable productivity and income growth for both adaptation and mitigation
• Uptake of new technologies and practices by smallholders
(FtF-CSA Framework, 2016)

Key agroforestry technologies
Species domestication
Adansonia digitata (baobab)
Parkia biglobosa (nere)
Leafy vegetables – food banksVitellaria paradoxa (Shea)
Tamarindus indica (tamarinier)
Ziziphus mauritiana (jujubes)
Key agroforestry technologies
• The majority of these promising technologies have remained at experimental level or in the best cases village-limited
• SmAT-Scaling initiative for Agroforestry technology Scaling Award under FtF-USAID
Key agroforestry technologies
SmAT-Scaling Objective
10
GOAL: Enhance access to and use of tree-based climate-smart technologies through effective and context specific scaling-up of already-developed and proven climate-smart technologies to:
- improve market access - increase food and nutritional security, - build resilience of farming systems
SCALING-UP APPROACHES
1. Bottom-up demand driven and market oriented technology diffusion2. Rural Resource Centers3. Public-Private Partnership 4. Multi-stakeholder innovation platforms 5. Multilevel partnership

Dealing with security and expansion strategies in the North- Permanent USAID Mali Mission, ICRAF & ICRISAT Security monitoring and Alert- Travels limitation and use of secured water way when necessary- Using locally available facilities and resources (cars and staff from DRA)- Bringing field agents to a more secure location for training activities- Replacement of highly affected villages by the more secured ones- Remote monitoring, mobile money transfer, etc.
Key partners
• 240,000 individuals received training on tree-based technologies and practices for food security as a result of USG assistance
• 224,000 farmers applied improved technologies or management practices as a result of USG assistance
• 48,000 ha of land under climate-smart agricultural practices
• Sales of farm produce increased by 7%
• Prevalence of stunted and wasted children under 5 years old reduced by 5%
• Prevalence of children 6-23 months receiving a minimum acceptable diet increased by 20%
• Household dietary diversity increased by 3%
What we intend to achieve over 5 Years ?
1. Participatory prioritization/selection of agroforestry practices
2. Promoting improved tree seeds/seedlings production and delivery systems
3. Developing diversified market opportunities for tree products
4. Improving food and nutritional security
5. Promoting climate-smart agriculture practices (CSA, SWC, FMNR)
6. Strengthening capacities and business plan development
7. Promoting Public Private Partnerships:
a) Shea value chain 25,000 Women
b) Beeswax value chains 3000 Women + Impact research
c) Jatropha-based value chains 100 Coop. (45% Women)
SmAT-Scaling ongoing activities
Scaling-up approaches
+ 1,500 kg of various seed species used to plant 8.8 millions new trees
1. Bottom-up demand driven

2- Rural Resource Centers…
Scaling-up approaches
• Skills development in nursery practices, tree propagation, group dynamics and marketing
• Information on new technologies
• Links with market actors (private sector)
• Access to market information
• Forum for exchange of information among farmers, and between farmers and other stakeholders
• Seeds, seedlings and other inputs
• 12 RRCs in (11 completed in 2016)

Scaling-up approaches
Tree Nursery - Climate information & decision in RRC
Demonstration plots
• 132 Schools being trained (3700 pupils & teachers)
3. Public – Private – Partnership
Scaling-up approaches
Shea PPP (ICCO-OLVEA)Shea commercialization • 60 tons in 2015• 200 tons in 2016• 500 tons in 2017 through farmer’s
organization for (non and) organicBenefit over 25,000 women
Beeswax PPP (ICCO-Olvea)
- 3,400 beehives are distributed to women's cooperatives for the production of beeswax
- Benefit to 3,000 women trained in beeswax production
- Documenting aspects of Shea tree flowering and fruiting phenology
- Effect of bees on the fruit-set (study in 6 villages)

3. Public – Private – Partnership Jatropha PPP (Mali Biocarburant S.A.)
• 8 Million of improved Jatropha on 8,000 Ha• 17,000 MT of improved maize and sorghum • Biodigester installed (Bio gaz) with 100 Coop.
(45% Women)• Add value to the press cake (organic fertilizer)• Soap factory in Sikasso (+ Koulikoro) • Shift from biodiesel to supplying soap
manufacturers (global price for petroleum)• Linking with the private sector more able to find
new opportunities & adapt to new markets
Scaling-up approaches
29
• Support and strengthen capacity on national agricultural/forestry and extension service agents (IER, DRA, DRAF) for cascading knowledge
• Effective linkages with Food for Peace on Climate Resilience Program (NEF)
• Scaling up PPP in FtF CVC
5- Multilevel partnership
Scaling-up approaches
Main focus on women and nutritional security: tree-based leafy vegetables (Moringa, Baobab, Tamarind) cooking demonstration & juice processing
At least 30% of beneficiaries been women (~ 100% for Shea & beeswax)
Business plan development women cooperatives and access to credit facilities (100% women)
FtFMS – WEAI for women empowerment assessment
Diversification and marketing opportunity CSA framework
Gender inclusiveness
Further insight from
Discussion points and way forward
• Building on existing consortium network, agreement and MoUs
• Potential areas/opportunities for fitting-in with new/ongoing USAID initiatives (GCC, Resilience, BFS and CSA, Forestry and Biodiversity-FAB) and opportunity for raising additional funds – Alignment concept notes
• Valuing and sustainability on SmAT-Scaling achieving through new PPPs, Climate Change, Payment for Ecosystem services to value millions of trees being planted, etc.
