Innovation and dissemination of technologies for adaptation of agriculture to climate change – AGRIADAPTA
10'000 families in 19 municipalities of the country improve their food security and their situation of poverty by practising sustainable and climate-smart agriculture. The Project will provide resources so that small-hold farmers in environmentally degraded dry areas affected by climate change and variability develop capacities, exchange knowledge and apply technologies for climate change adaptation.

Hintergrund |
The government of Nicaragua has determined that climate change is a major current challenge, especially in the dry corridor, and it is preparing a long-term strategy for attention to this region. The area of intervention of the project includes 19 municipalities in the dry corridor. The area is strategic because of its location in the Managua Lake watershed that shows strong environmental deterioration (scarce forest cover, eroded soils). It is home to an large number of poor small-hold farmers and close to densely populated urban centres threatened by flooding and landslides. The drought of the last few years has generated serious socio-economic and environmental consequences including crop losses, food insecurity and poverty. |
Ziele |
Increase the climate change adaptation (CCA) capacity of 10'000 families of small and medium-sized farm producers and their communities through the dissemination, application and adoption of agro-ecological technologies and practices in 19 municipalities in the dry corridor of Nicaragua. |
Zielgruppen |
10'000 families with small and medium-sized farms (less than 15 hectares). 600 agro-environmental promotors (youth and women). 100 technical staff in partner institutions.
