Planning and costing adaptation of perennial crop farming systems to climate change: Coffee and banana in Rwanda
Summary
The study focuses on evaluating and costing climate change adaptation measures for coffee and banana farming systems in Rwanda. It aligns with the Rwandan Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy (EDPRS) 2008-2012, which prioritizes addressing climate change impacts through secure settlements in hazard-exposed areas and the implementation of early warning systems for drought and food security. The research analyzes climate-related shocks from the perspectives of both farmers and policymakers and discusses strategies for implementation.
Key insights
- The study evaluates and costs adaptation measures for coffee and banana farming systems in Rwanda to support the Rwandan Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy (EDPRS) 2008-2012, which identifies climate change impacts as a high priority.
- The EDPRS emphasizes the need for early warning systems to enhance food and drought security, alongside the creation of criteria for secure settlements in regions vulnerable to meteorological hazards.
