Pic by Neil Palmer (CIAT). Full Captions to follow shortly. As part of the Farms of the Future project, CCAFS together with researchers at Oxford University, have been working to identify areas of western Nepal that are currently experiencing the expected future climate of Beora, a small farming community in Rupandehi District. The project involves a series of farmer exchanges, in which farmers from Beora will visit their “future climates”, to help them learn about how communities cope with higher temperatures and different rainfall patterns.
These pictures are from a scoping trip to identify the possible exchange locations. For more information contact n.palmer@cgiar.org. Please let us know when you use a CIAT pic by leaving a comment here on Flickr…and please remember to credit accordingly.
