Summary: Strategies for adapting to and mitigating climate change can be complementary and generate economic and social benefits for the most vulnerable rural population. There are a number of soil and water conservation practices that contribute to increasing the resilience of agricultural systems in the face of extreme weather events and, at the same time, to increasing the carbon stock in the soil and consequently agricultural productivity. Changes in management practices in agricultural and forestry production systems, such as minimum cultivation, crop rotation, green manure, reduction. of grazing pressure and suppression of deforestation, can increase agricultural productivity and its economic returns, which may contribute to food security and to reducing the vulnerability of the rural population.
