Über Adapting to Climate Uncertainty in African Agriculture

This book examines the challenges of adaptation in smallholder farming in Africa, analysing the social, economic, political and climatic uncertainties that impact on agriculture in the region and the range of solutions proposed. Drawing on case studies of genetically modified crops, cash-crop alternatives to maize, and conservation agriculture in eastern and southern Africa, the book identifies how uncertainties are framed `from above¿ as well experienced `from below¿, by farmers themselves. It draws out conclusions that will be highly relevant for research and humanitarian investments, as well as national and international agricultural policies.
