Mixed-methods research finds climate-smart irrigation improves agricultural productivity in northern Nigeria, suggesting policy support for adoption through extension services.
Climate change poses significant challenges to agricultural productivity in northern Nigerian villages, where climate-smart irrigation techniques can enhance resilience and sustainability. A mixed-methods approach combining quantitative surveys with qualitative interviews to gather data from a representative sample of villages across northern Nigeria. Climate-smart irrigation techniques offer substantial economic benefits to farmers in northern Nigerian villages, particularly in enhancing agricultural productivity and reducing water usage.
