This study seeks to address these challenges for Kenya by pursuing the following objectives: 1. To provide an assessment of the impacts of climate change on the agriculture sector in Kenya. 2. To identify and assess ongoing and alternative adaptation strategies. 3. To identify agricultural land management practices. 4. To identify perceptions of climate-related risks. 5.
