Project description
 

African agriculture is vulnerable for climate change and adaptation strategies have been recommended. However, empirical studies are mainly focused on adaptation barriers rather than implications of adaptations. This study is, therefore, to analyze the implications of adaptations for smallholder farmers’ food security in Ethiopia. Therefore, the studies provide evidence-based recommendations for policy decisions on implications of adaptation on food security.
