Swaans, C.; Soksophors, Y. (2024) Scaling climate resilience: Local agro-climatic committees reach 6,000 more Cambodian farmers. Rome (Italy): Bioversity International; Cali (Colombia): CIAT 4 p.

An additional 6,000 rice growing smallholder farmers (69% female) from 26 agricultural cooperatives (AC) across four districts of Prey Veng and Takeo provinces in the Lower Mekong Basin (LMB) used seasonal agroclimatic advisories in their planning and decision-making for better climate-risk management. Agroclimatic advisories were developed based on Crop Decision Trees (CDTs) for different climate scenarios through Local Technical Agroclimatic Committees (LTAC).
