The authors start by saying climate resilient cropping systems are required to adapt to the threat of climate change in Southern Africa. They suggest that the results for CA have a positive effect on adaptation and productivity, but its mitigation potential lags far behind expectations. CA does improve water infiltration rates and conserve soil moisture that helps overcome seasonal dry spells. Increased productivity and profitability was also positive although a lag period of 2-5 years is common before yields are significantly higher. But savings in labor are attractive in the short term to farmers using CA for those who cannot afford to wait for the yield gains to show up. However, data on the effects of CA on SOC and reductions in GHG's are often contradictory and dependent on the environment and available surface residue retention. They suggest more emphasis is needed on this topic.
