Abstract

The uncertainty about future climate changes, low resource base of semiarid tropics and the dominant traditional methods of adaptation in the study areas has made it imperative to invest in adaptation in order for nations to be fully prepared to cope with adverse changes with possible increase in severe consequences.

Hence this research aimed at assessing farmers adaptation strategies to climate change in Sokoto State. This was achieved by a set of objectives which include to characterize the climate of the study area,

assess the awareness of farmers on climate change and examine the impact of climate change on agriculture as well as adaptation strategies adopted by the farmers in the study area.

Rainfall and temperature data of the study area for a period of 30 years (1986 – 2015) were obtained from the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMET) in Sokoto state and used to characterize the climate of the study area.

Introduction

Climate change is a long term shift in the climate of a specific location, region or planet. The shift is measured by changes in features associated with average weather, such as temperature, wind patterns and precipitation.

According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change [IPCC] (2007) in the fourth assessment report, climate change is a change in the state of the climate that can be identified (using statistical tests) by the changes in the mean of temperature, precipitation and wind pattern and that persists for an extended period typically decades or longer.

Climate change is, therefore, the statistically significant deviation or shift from the average weather conditions of climatic elements.

Climate change poses a serious danger to livelihoods and food security as well as aggravating risks and vulnerabilities through the incidence of environmental disaster and extreme weather events (Umar, 2012).
