Climate change impacts and adaptations in Eastern and Western Africa crop production systems: lessons and transferable models among smallholder farmers

Climate change is a growing threat severely impacting crop production and productivity in East and West Africa. However, evidence comparing the nature of the impact and adaptive measures between the regions is scarce. This scientific research primarily focuses on characterizing patterns of crop production and productivity, reviewing the climate change impacts on crop production systems, and assessing existing adaptation mechanisms in East and West Africa, with the overall arching goal of acceler
