Climate change remains the most significant challenge facing farmers in Benin. Irregular and unpredictable rains, coupled with prolonged droughts and increased incidents of high winds, are decimating crop production across many regions.

The Project for Adaptation to Climate Change (PAda-Clim-Benin), with financial support from Bread for the World (Germany) and DM Exchange and Mission (Switzerland), is using local resources and tried and tested agroecological practices to mitigate these risks and provide greater food security and sovereignty to the small-scale farming sector.
