dc.titlePromoting crop diversification and tied ridging for adaptation among small holder farmersen
dcterms.abstractThis report focuses on three value chains; maize, cowpea, and groundnut, and the associated technologies to address the effects of climate change manifested in unpredictable rainfall patterns, elevated air temperatures, and poor soil fertility. To address these issues, the project promoted intercropping as an alternate cropping system to promote diversification to reduce farmers’ vulnerability to climate change. The project also demonstrated tied ridging as an improved landform for soil water conservation. The deployment of the technologies using the climate-smart agriculture hubs facilitated effective coordination and implementation of activities. End users showed a high preference for tied ridging for water conservation and high yield which builds their resilience against climate risk. Participants (mainly women) developed an interest in the Sari Nut 2 (groundnut), and expressed the desire to purchase some at subsidized prices.en
