As Northern Ghana faces the severe impacts of prolonged droughts exacerbated by climate change, the adoption of climate-resilient agricultural strategies has become critical for sustainable farming. The Alliance and the Industrial Research’s Crops Research Institute (CSIR-CRI) are implementing the smart soils and production component of the Accelerating Impacts of CGIAR’s Climate Research for Africa (AICCRA) project in five communities in the Kumbungu district. This initiative aims to demonstrate and promote validated climate-smart technologies, showcasing their effectiveness and potential for adoption across the region.
As part of the project’s outreach activities, a field day was organized at Kunkulung with neighboring communities including Gbulung, Nyoring and Nganang. This event enabled cross-community knowledge sharing and facilitated the dissemination of best practices. Key stakeholders attended the field day, including officers from the Department of Agriculture, members of the CSA hub, media outlets and farmers from various nearby communities. Through these farmer field days, hundreds of farmers were introduced to climate-smart agriculture innovations, seeing their value and how they could increase their resilience.
