Climate change adaptation strategies by smallholder farmers in Nigeria: does non-farm employment play any role?

Gideon Danso-Abbeam et al.

Summary: The study found that rural non-farm employment helps to enhance smallholder farmers' adaptive capacities, as participants are more likely to utilize a greater number of adaptation techniques. Therefore, in order to increase farmers' ability to adopt more climate change adaptation strategies and to boost farm productivity, efforts must be made to provide more employment opportunities in rural areas.
