Climate Change Adaptation Measures Adopted by Small Scale Female Farmers in Kenya

The declining agricultural productivity in Kenya is worrisome and a real challenge for a Government with a population of approximately 30 million to feed. This is especially because the agriculture sector is and will continue to be, the backbone of the Kenyan economy. Worse still, climate change impacts are further dimming the potential and future growth of this sector making the attainment of national food security an elusive goal. This book therefore examines the strategies adopted by the small scale female farmers in adapting to climate change impacts and makes recommendations on how to potentially strengthen this adaptive capacity at both the national and international levels.
