Published purpose
This grant represents Canada’s support to the Adaptation for Smallholder Agriculture Programme (ASAP) of the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD). The main objective of ASAP is to help poor rural smallholder farming communities withstand the effects of climate change and weather related disasters. The programme achieves this objective by supporting the creation and sharing of knowledge, approaches and practices related to climate change adaptation. CIDA’s support to ASAP expects to help farmers reduce their crop yield losses, gain increased access to water supplies, use water resources more efficiently, and build individual and community level capacity to adapt to climate change.
