East African agriculture and climate change: A comprehensive analysis - Kenya
In this chapter we review some national statistics that will help characterize the capacity of the population to adapt to climate change and describe Kenya’s land base and current agricultural context. Then we show results of crop models that incorporate climate projections from recent global models. Finally, we incorporate those results into a global model for food and for agricultural supply and demand that takes into account demographic and economic projections for Kenya. Along the way, we identify areas of potential losses and gains.
