A missing element in the practice of digital farming
Governments in Sub-Sahara Africa (SSA) are introducing digital tools and advisory services into farming landscapes. In this paper, we explore the region’s readiness for digital agriculture through a theoretical lens of material elements of social practices. We reviewed secondary data on telecommunication infrastructure from two databases (GSMA database and Our World in Data) and complemented it with a case study of smallholder farmers’ (N=1565) a…
Towards a livelihood-interdependence approach to framing adaptation in research and practice
Changing farmer–herder relations (FHR) are central to the social dynamics of climate change adaptation in African drylands, involving conflict and cooperation. While substantial literature has built a case for increased conflict of various kinds in West African drylands due to climate change stressors, this literature does not yet fully reflect the growing importance of more cooperative and interdependent elements of FHR. This study addresses thi…

Conservation policies intended to address biodiversity loss and climate change are increasingly linked to land dispossession, human rights violations, and th…

Using Kumasi as a case …
