This paper is a notable output of the collaborative modelling effort 'Integrated Future Estimator for Emissions and Diets' (iFEED), part of the GCFAFRICAP-Climate Smart Agricultural Development Project.It highlights the importance of climate-smart agriculture and nutrition security in Sub-Saharan Africa. The paper discusses the impact of climate-smart agriculture on nutrition security in sub-Saharan Africa, with a focus on Tanzania, Malawi, South Africa, and Zambia. It emphasizes the urgent need to diversify agricultural production to include more micronutrient-rich foods and suggests that expanding agricultural areas is essential unless there are rapid improvements in crop yields. The study also delves into the challenges of this necessary transformation, including the potential for increased greenhouse gas emissions and the economic and political complexities of relying on food imports.
