Assessing the potential of rainwater harvesting as an adaptation strategy to climate change in Africa
Stabilizing smallholder crop yields under changing climatic conditions in Africa will require adequate adaptation strategies focused on soil and water management. In some regions, rainwater harvesting (RWH) is used already to decrease the susceptibility of crops to frequent dry spells. Findings from...
