31 October 2013, KIROKA, TANZANIA - The canal which feeds water from several sources to the highland and lowland. For years, farmers fought due to the constant shortage of water, but with improved water management techniques, the fighting has stopped. An FAO project to strengthen capacity of farms for climate change is underway in Kiroka, Tanzania. "It's something we may call climate-smart agriculture," says mission project co-ordinator Prof. Henry Mahoo, who teaches at the Sokoine University of Agriculture. The project aims to improve land and water management, promote climate resilient agriculture and encourage dialogue and understanding regarding climate change adaptation practices.
