The Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) has partnered with the Human and Environmental Development Agenda (HEDA) to provide crucial climate information tailored for small-scale farmers. This collaboration aims to enhance agricultural productivity and resilience against climate change.
Through this partnership, NiMet will deliver timely weather forecasts, climate data, and training to empower farmers in making informed decisions. By utilizing accurate climate information, farmers can better plan their planting and harvesting schedules, ultimately improving yields and food security.
HEDA’s focus on grassroots engagement ensures that small-scale farmers receive the necessary support and resources. This initiative not only addresses immediate agricultural challenges but also fosters long-term sustainability in farming practices.
As climate change continues to pose significant threats to agriculture, this partnership represents a proactive step towards safeguarding the livelihoods of small-scale farmers across Nigeria. With enhanced access to vital climate information, farmers can adapt more effectively to changing weather patterns and environmental conditions.
