How can farming practices be adapted to combat climate change?

Farming practices can be adapted by implementing sustainable techniques like crop rotation, agroforestry, and precision agriculture.

Can you give me some case studies of successful adaptations?

Sure! One example is the use of cover crops in the Midwest USA, which improved soil health and reduced erosion.

What about in developing countries?

In Kenya, farmers have adopted intercropping and water conservation techniques, leading to increased yields and resilience.

Are there any specific technologies that help?

Yes, technologies like drip irrigation and mobile apps for weather forecasting have significantly helped farmers adapt to climate changes.

How can I learn more about these practices?

You can explore resources from organizations like FAO or local agricultural extension services for more information.
