Dr Katharine Vincent is currently in Cameroon to visit with farmers' groups in the forested zone in the southwest of the country to see what responses they have been putting into practice in response to climate change. Agricultural adaptations are being assessed in six countries across Africa as part of a project managed by Kulima and UNIQUE Landuse and Forestry that seeks to identify agricultural adaptation best practices on behalf of the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme. Different farming and commodity types were selected for further investigation at a workshop in 2013. The visit follows related ones to Zambia in April, Togo in May, and Burkina Faso earlier in July. The final results of the study are anticipated in early 2015.
