Climate change and agricultural resilience in Nigeria Sample Clauses

Climate change and agricultural resilience in Nigeria. During the first year, this research project will conduct an extensive literature review on experiences with climate change in other parts of the world that have had to cope with the impact of rapid climate change on their agricultural systems to develop a framework for effective mobilization for resources to fund the research and development, dissemination and adoption of climate resilient varieties of crops and cropping systems. It will also use a participatory research approach to better understand how farmers in Nigeria are adapting to climate change to feed into the further research on locally appropriate climate resilient agricultural strategies. As stated in the proposal, data collection for this activity (and 2.3 and 2.4) will be coordinated with IFPRI data collection exercises and during the first year, these details will be discussed and coordinated between MSU and IFPRI. Activity 2.3: Exploring how the implications of climate change on cropping systems interact with the broader food system in Nigeria (particularly poultry and maize) With the numerous links between animal production and cropping systems (largely through feed), any change to the cropping systems is also likely to affect animal produc- tion. During the work plan period, the research team will conduct a pre-scoping activi- ties and some stack surveys to understand the current value chains for poultry and maize in Nigeria and how they link to the current cropping systems.
