It found that human and natural capitals are the most significant factors influencing adoption of diversification strategies, which in turn are associated with poverty reduction, improved food security, and better climate adaptation.
The impact of diversification is reflected through improved food security and nutrition, sustainable crop production, increased income, and better adaptation to climate vulnerabilities. A scarcity of studies on the relationship between livelihood diversification and gender was also identified. The authors recommend that policymakers introduce developmental policies providing smallholder farmers with access to natural, financial, and physical capital, and that future research analyze impacts on food security, gender equality, and climate change.
