The government of the United Kingdom has said its LINKS programme implemented by Tetra Tech International Development has been piloting a couple of climate-smart farming initiatives in three Nigerian states since 2021.
This, it said in a statement Wednesday, has helped farmers across the three pilot states ( Kaduna, Kano and Jigawa) to increase yields and become more resilient in the face of climate change while reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions in the country.
At a Climate Smart Agriculture results and lesson-sharing event held in Abuja on Wednesday, LINKS demonstrated that the project is starting to deliver impressive results, particularly the Systems of Rice Intensification (SRI).
