Adaptation to climate change in Burkina Faso
Why This Project Matters
Context:
Rain-fed agriculture employs almost 95% of the active population of the municipality. Cereals are the dominant food crops. The population has pointed out the connection between decreasing yields and climate change.
Development Objective :
The beneficiaires have adapted their agricultural production to climate change through irrigated vegetable production by using agro-écological methods and renewable energies
Expected Outcomes:
- Irrigated vegetable production has been developed
- Conditions for storage, transformation and sale have been improoved
- Technical and organizational capacity of the beneficiaires has been strengthened
Beneficiaries
The direct beneficiaries are the 200 supported vegetable producers and their families, so about 1 200 people.
In addition, the project will also benefit to the population of the 4 target villages (22 402 people), the municipality of Ténado and the surrounding large urban centers.

The total budget is set at € 500 000 for the period 2020 to 2024, so € 100 000 per year.
