Fix Climate Resilience Failure, Cut Flood Losses 50
A 2023 pilot in Ghana’s Volta Basin showed that 40% of smallholder fields reduced crop loss after adopting basin-wide soil-moisture baselines. Building climate resilience for Volta Basin smallholders hinges on precise soil-moisture mapping, satellite-driven rainfall forecasts, and cooperative water capture, which together boost irrigation efficiency and protect yields.
