Abstract/Description

In pilot trainings in Tanzania, farmers have received climate data together with participatory tools to help them evaluate their options and make on-farm decisions. The approach is now being scaled up in Malawi and Tanzania through training agricultural extension agents and NGO staff to provide climate information and decision-making tools.
