impacts. Enhance food security. Use and access to fertilisers and pesticides Promote crop cultivation through enhanced soil nutrient content, increasing crop resilience to temperature rise, and variability in rainfall patterns and soil water content. None Promote crop cultivation through enhanced soil nutrient content and reduction in pests. Positive rural livelihood implications, and for food security. None None Significant potential for over-use leading to reduction in soil health and crops, in addition to aquatic pollution. Cost of fertilisers and pesticides to farmers. Variability in soil conditions requiring careful context specific application to avoid degradation problems. 1 Food (crop) and seed storage systems Secure agricultural production and food access in drought with climate change. None Secure rural and urban livelihoods through improved access to seeds and food. None None None Secure, efficient storage systems are provided and maintained. 3 Drought resistant seeds and crops Increase crop resilience to drought conditions with rising temperatures, reduced rainfall with climate change. Increase carbon sequestration sinks through greater and more consistent crop coverage. Improve livelihood security and access to food. Income generation benefits. None None None Part of crop diversification strategy not fully leading to mono-cropping with associated risks. 4 Market access and liberalisation of trade policies None None Improved access to markets for income generation and purchasing of required agricultural inputs for farming. None None None Fair and equitable access to markets with efficient transport systems. 2 Encourage agroforestry to improve land fertility Increase ecosystem resilience to climate change impacts.
