- Climate-smart cattle farming (CSCF) aims to increase productivity and income while enhancing resilience and reducing GHG emissions from cattle ranching.
- The assessment of CSCF integrates various variables including productivity, mitigation, adaptation, economic feasibility and ease of implementation in the Orinoquía.
- CSCF practices and technologies were evaluated and prioritized based on quantitative data collected from literature and consultations with local producers and experts.
Comments
Is mitigation measured or estimated?
Were all the indicators mreasured or just estimated from literature
Mitigation information was based on in vivo measured practices and estimates based on in vitro studies.
On the indicator - Adaptation probably including water use such that you have kg DM/ha/mm to introduce productivity water use efficiency could have been considered
- The size of the groups?
- Which farmers? smallholders or largescale farmers?
Clarifying what the different silvopastoral systems involve
Will these findings be valid to other regions across Columbia with similar environment
Not sure what was size of each group?
Not sure what it means by intensive production systems?
What will be the next steps based on the results of this assessment?
Ranking based on farmers' subjective judgement may not reflect the true benefit as stated preferences are often different from revealed preferences. I suggest using objective data to be collected and the researcher does the ranking, and comparing the two rankings.
