This study analyzed determinants of farm-level climate adaptation measures in Africa using a multinomial choice model fitted to data from a cross-sectional survey of over 8000 farms from 11 African countries. The results indicate that specialized crop cultivation (mono-cropping) is the...

Increasing temperature and variability in precipitation in the semi-arid regions have reduced crop yields and increased vulnerability of the farmers. This paper has estimated the vulnerability of both farmers and irrigation tanks to rainfall variability in a rain-fed area. It has also looked...

Rainfall and temperature are the two important weather factors that affect crop yields due to their direct and indirect influences on agricultural practices. This study has negated the method of direct use of meteorological factors (either monthly or seasonal), in multiple regression analysis to...
