Smallholder agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa faces many problems. The adoption of modern innovations has been low. Indigenous alternatives may constitute alternatives; however, they have received less attention. This study contributes to filling this gap in the case study of Turiani, Tanzania. A mixed-method research design was used to understand farmers’ use and assessment of indigenous technologies. The quantitative survey covered 280 househol…
The impact of smallholder farmers’ knowledge on climate change adaptation on food security in Tanzania
Climate change poses a substantial threats to agriculture and food security in Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly in Tanzania. While research has proposed farm-level strategies to mitigate these impacts, empirical evidence on the effectiveness of local knowledge adaptation strategies and their influence on food security outcomes remains scarce. This study addresses this gap by examining the adaptation strategies employed by smallholder farmers in K…
Emerging and persistent challenges in water resources governance in rural Tanzania
The article examines the emerging and persistent challenges of water resources governance that contribute to unequitable sharing of water resources amid the different competing users in the Mgeta subcatchment in the Ruvu River Basin, Tanzania.

Understanding social vulnerability to climate change using a ‘riskscapes’ lens
This paper uses the concept of riskscapes to understand the way climate risks manifest themselves and interact with other risks to create vulnerable local communities in Ethiopia and Tanzania. The main research question we addressed is: what are the different sources of risks facing farmers’ livelihoods in the selected case study areas of both countries and where does climate risk fit? The study uses qualitative research methodology with thick de…
