Hawai‘i CSA Resource Webtool

Agricultural practices are a key adaptation for both addressing contributing factors to climate change and mitigating impacts. Resources for supporting current activities and transitions to CSA practices are increasingly available from multiple sources. The Hawai‘i CSA Resource Webtool provides a way to more effectively navigate these resources.

How to Use the Webtool

• Our team has compiled a database of CSA resources that can be accessed via a web interface.
• Select the CSA practices of interest.
• Read about and follow the links to the resources.
• There are three types of resources:
  • Policy: information related to governance documents that define/proscribe CSA practices.
  • Technical: topical information about CSA practices, particularly implementation.
  • Support: resources to activate CSA practices.
• Resources can be alphabetically sorted by clicking on the column headers.
• Information for the selected practices can be exported by clicking on the Download Selected Rows button.
• At any time, the selected practices can be cleared and re-selected in their entirety using the Deselect All and Select All buttons.
