| dc.description | Adaptation options to climate variability and change in north-western Bangladesh need to consider alternative cropping patterns and cultivation practices to support the most efficient use of the limited natural resources. Diversification and adjustment of cultivated crops is a traditional adaptation practice contributing to minimize the risk of crop failure due to drought. However, diversification can be further strengthened by interactive systematic testing, selection and dissemination of appropriate crops and varieties. This may be accomplished in a participatory way between research institutions and farmers (groups). The introduction of more drought-resistant crops and cropping patterns are important options to help reducing vulnerability to climate change. | |
