For example, farmers select … sorghum and maize-millet in the cooler regions of Africa; maize-beans, maize-groundnut, and maize in moderately warm regions …

This study examines the impact of climate change on cropland in Africa. It is based on a survey of more than 9 …,000 farmers in 11 countries: Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Niger, Senegal, South Africa, Zambia, and … located in relatively cool parts of Africa. The study also examined some simple climate scenarios to see how Africa would …
