dc.description.abstractIn Lesotho, Malawi and Swaziland, moderately vulnerable households are likely to become highly vulnerable with changes in climate. The project aims to generate scientific understanding of localized climate scenarios in the three countries; integrate localized climate scenarios with crop growth and adaptation models; provide district-wide household vulnerability information; and determine the socio-economic feasibility of cropping options. Evidence-based policy implications are derived from the study; for instance, the importance of institutional systems that can disseminate timely climate information to smallholders, including informed planting dates.en
