The iSPARK project has published a new report focussing on climate-smart irrigation using integrated climate indicators. Increasing rainfall variability and rising temperatures are intensifying irrigation demand across western Kenya, particularly in smallholder systems in the Lake Victoria Basin. Yet many existing tools rely on single-variable indicators, limiting their usefulness for integrated and anticipatory decision support. This report develops a Compound Irrigation Advisory Index (CIAI) to support Targeted Climate-Smart Irrigation Advisory (T-CSIA) in Kisumu, Siaya and Homa Bay counties in Kenya.
