Agriculture and Rural Development - climate change adaptation

How is climate change affecting agriculture and food security in Africa? How are farmers adapting to these changes?

FAC is already working on adaptation research related to smallholder agriculture and is launching a new 'climate change' research theme this year.

FAC is inviting comments on this issue. Please send input to info@future-agricultures.org
