Descripción
This brief summarizes the results of a comprehensive national representative plot-level survey with a wealth of socio-economic information merged with geo-referenced climatic information. We assess factors affecting the adoption of agricultural technologies under climate risk and evaluate the impact of adoption on food security in Niger. Specifically, we look at how bio-physical and climatic factors affect a set of agricultural practices known to increase resilience and productivity. We analyse the relationship between type of practice and crop productivity for a range of different farmer types, and under a range of biophysical and climate conditions.
