Climate Resilient Agriculture Practices in Coastal Mozambique: A Three-Year Project on Yields Growth
Abstract
This study examines a three-year project aimed at enhancing climate-resilient agriculture practices in coastal Mozambique communities to improve crop yields. A mixed-methods approach was employed, incorporating both quantitative data analysis from yield measurements and qualitative insights through interviews and focus groups with farmers. Crop yields showed a significant increase of 20% in the third year compared to baseline levels, driven by improved water management techniques and crop diversification strategies. The project demonstrated that climate-resilient agriculture practices can effectively boost agricultural productivity in coastal Mozambique communities. Policy recommendations include promoting government funding for research into sustainable farming methods and encouraging community-led initiatives to support farmers' adaptation efforts.
