","pub","s2.14","","","restricted",,,,,,"Farmers living and working in the semi-arid tropics (SAT) of Africa and Asia are
acutely vulnerable to climate variability and change due to their limited natural and
financial resources coupled with poor infrastructure, institutional support, and gover-
nance (World Bank 2008). Coping with variability is nonetheless a way of life for many
of these farmers, and farmers in many different regions of the world have adopted or
adapted strategies to manage variability. In this chapter we first describe the impacts
of climate change on crop and livestock production, water resources, and prices,
poverty, and malnutrition in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Secondly,
we examine adaptation strategies, focusing on the social/institutional aspects needed
to support farmers’ adaptation strategies as well as describing briefly strategies used
by farmers.
