Conclusion.This book proves, through empirical research, that indigenous and traditional agricultural communities have experienced severe climate change impacts, and have developed corresponding livelihood strategies to strengthen their resilience in a variable climate. With a focus on indigenous minority farming communities in the developing region of South-Western Zimbabwe, the study presents both qualitative and quantitative approaches of data analysis to assess sustainability problems amid climate change and climate variability challenges, and proposes potential solutions. In eight chapters, the book expands on the scarce availability of community-based research on climate change and variability in Zimbabwe. The book is meant for college and university students and stakeholders involved in development work in rural minority farmer communities, especially in climate change prone regions of Africa and other developing countries who have very few options of adaptation and mitigation.Sustainable Development Goals Series,2523-3084Sustainable developmentClimatic changesEnvironmental geographyAgricultureSustainable Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000Climate Change/Climate Change Impactshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000Environmental Geographyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J19010Climate Changehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U12007Agriculturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006Sustainable development.Climatic changes.Environmental geography.Agriculture.Sustainable Development.Climate Change/Climate Change Impacts.Environmental Geography.Climate Change.Agriculture.630.2086Matsa Markauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1075626MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910768195103321Climate Change and Agriculture in Zimbabwe2585397UNINA
