Resumen
Descripción
Across four districts of Prey Veng and Takeo provinces in the Lower Mekong Basin (LMB) in Cambodia, a total of 7,795 smallholder rice farmers (71% women) from 24 agricultural cooperatives used seasonal agroclimatic advisories in their planning and decision-making to improve climate-risk management. The Local Technical Agroclimatic Committees (LTACs) develop agroclimatic advisories for different climate scenarios based on Crop Decision Trees (CDTs).
