Abstract

Climate smart coffee production is indispensable measure to withstand climate change challenges; since, Climate change is a worst problem that the world is facing and will result incredible situation unless adaptation and mitigation measures are taken. The review was prepared to access the effect of climate change on coffee (coffea arabica) production and the possible adaptation and mitigation practices to withstand the challenges. The most frightening impact of climate change on coffee producing regions have been identified as being at a high risk and need to make extra efforts to prepare for the future thereby to maintain sustainable productive coffee production. It is possible to withstand the negative impacts of climate change by different adaptation and mitigation practices; such as, Shade use and reforestation, crop improvement, coffee-banana intercropping and other conservation practices was included. Comprehensive accomplishment of these practices helps to alleviate the climate change impacts. Some gaps was identified regarding with shade tree variety development and determining the appropriate shade level, identification of drought resistance genes from coffee arabica and coffee-enset intercropping.
