A successful CBA
Climate tolerant and short maturity crops are the comunity-based adaptation measures that I have observed my community farmers practices to address the climate change impact on their farming.
This adaptation measures address delay in rainfall pattern, drought and short duration of rainfall.
Local people were involved in the decision-making through active participation, repenstation of farm groups members, capacity and skills building, accessibility of drought tolerant seeds, financial support to purchase drought tolerant seeds, innovative farming practices to reduce GHG emissions, ehnance and increase productivity and to build resilience, and knowledge learning and sharing networks from across other adjourning communities.
This initiative has increased productivity through farm produce, enhanced farmers' capacity and skills in climate smart agriculture practices, enhnaced farmers' resilience and diversification of livelihood, among others.
Farmers use birds and trees and other traditional ways of predicting rainfall (early or late rain) pattern, flooding and traditional crops to grow.
