Vulnerability of smallholder vegetable farmers to climate variability in Bosome Freho, Ghana
Vegetable farming is a key source of income and nutrition for households in Ghana; however, it faces increasing risks due to climate variability. Understanding farmers’ vulnerability is essential for designing effective adaptation strategies. This study assessed the vulnerability of smallholder vegetable farmers to climate variability in the Bosome Freho District, Ghana. Using household surveys (n = 150) and three focus group discussions, we asse…
Gendered Pathways to Climate Adaptation Among Smallholder Farmers in Rural Ghana: Perspectives From Ejura Sekyedumase Municipality
Climate change poses significant threats to smallholder farmers in rural Ghana, especially in the Ejura Sekyedumase Municipality. While many studies explore gender differences in climate change perceptions and adaptation strategies, few examine how gendered access to resources and institutional systems shape distinct adaptation pathways under observed climate change. Guided by the Feminist Political Ecology and the Gender Responsive Climate Actio…
Perceptions of Climate Change, Meteorological Trends and Implications for Smallholder Cashew Farming in Ghana: Evidence From the Jaman North District
Agricultural systems face significant threats from climate change due to their high sensitivity to expected risks. While discussions about the impacts of climate change on food security, especially food crop production, are inconclusive, less attention has been given to cash crop production, which greatly contributes to the local economies of producing countries. Adapting agriculture to climate risks benefits from analysing trends and perceptions…
Methane emissions from rice cultivation in West Africa and compensation options from nature reserve forests
Methane (CH 4 ) is a major and potent greenhouse gas (GHG), and its emissions from agricultural activities, particularly rice cultivation, are a significant concern for climate change. Due to the high demand for food security, driven by rapid population growth and national initiatives to reduce dependency on rice imports, rice cultivation is intensified in West Africa. However, its contribution to atmospheric CH 4 remains largely unknown. Here, f…
Articulating Status in Ancient Greece: Status (In)consistency as a New Approach
Current descriptions of social status in the Greek world are strongly influenced by the works of Moses I. Finley and G. E. M. de Ste. Croix, whose models were grounded in the sociologies of Weber and Marx. This article outlines a new paradigm for social status based on a model from the social sciences, commonly described as status (in)consistency. The article demonstrates the descriptive and interpretive usefulness of this approach using two case…
