31 October 2013, KIROKA, TANZANIA - Women on their way to harvest bananas cross one of several streams which feed an irrigation canal that runs from the highlands to the lowlands of Kiroka. 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.
