Small-scale producers in Serbia learn to adapt to climate change
How can small-scale agricultural producers cope with the effects of climate change, reduce their exposure to risk, and manage their farms more efficiently? A series of training sessions launched recently in Serbia covers these very topics.
Agricultural producers in Serbia have been affected by extreme weather events in recent months and years – most seriously by the catastrophic May 2014 floods, and again by floods in March this year.
The training – organized and conducted by FAO in cooperation with the European Union, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environmental Protection (MAEP) and local self-governments – targets small-scale farmers, agricultural extension services and local governments.
