Produktbeschreibung
Climate variability has serious effects on the livelihood of rural people who depend on agriculture. The dependency of local people on agriculture and its significant contribution to their socio well-being makes the situation more critical. The study examined the impact of climate variability on livelihood o communities around Kamuku National Park (KNP) Birni-Gwari, Kaduna State, Nigeria. The Communities perceived decline in agricultural production as a major impact of climate variability. Other impacts perceived are shortage of water for irrigation, household and animal consumption, cases of diseases in human, plant and animals, decrease in soil fertility and migration of youths. The analysis of the satellite images of the Park indicates that the Park has lost 25% of its forest cover from 1999-2016. The study recommended awareness on climate variability to the communities.
