East Africa's smallholder agriculture is expected to be strongly affected by climate change, which, together with a growing population and pressure on natural resources, will result in an increasing challenge to achieve food security for households and regions. Policy makers need information on w...

Frelat, Romain[Development of an open source tool to analyze Vegetation Index from Remote Sensing data: Internship report]Development of an open source tool to analyze Vegetation Index from Remote Sensing data: Internship report

Achieving climate smart agriculture depends on understanding the links between farming and livelihood practices, other possible adaptation options, and the effects on farm performance, which is conceptualised by farmers as wider than yields. Reliable indicators of farm performance are needed in o...


Hammond, JamesFraval, SimonEtten, Jacob vanSuchini, Jose GabrielMercado, LeidaPagella, TimFrelat, RomainLannerstad, MatsDouxchamps, SabineTeufel, NilsValbuena, DiegoWijk, Mark T. van[The Rural Household Multi-Indicator Survey (RHoMIS) for rapid characterisation of households to inform climate smart agriculture interventions: Description and applications in East Africa and Central America]The Rural Household Multi-Indicator Survey (RHoMIS) for rapid characterisation of households to inform climate smart agriculture interventions: Description and applications in East Africa and Central America

Smallholder farms are crucial to feed the planet but are also food insecure. This chapter uses quantitative data on smallholder systems across sub Saharan Africa to analyse the consequences of unequal land access. Variation in farm size is large and looks different in different regions. Commonly ...

We calculated a simple indicator of food availability using data from 93 sites in 17 countries across contrasted agroecologies in sub- Saharan Africa (>13,000 farm households) and analyzed the drivers of variations in food availability. Crop production was the major source of energy, contributing...
