One of the goals of the created linkages is to manage a transition period in order
to support newly devised systems. Other goals are to ensure the smooth flow of
information on climate change, breed and select for plants to have suitable options
for higher temperature regimes and changed moisture availability. It also aims to
develop grazing systems models that are capable to link with meteorological data
to provide quantitative approaches to risk management. On farm level adaptations
to climate change, they recommended managing pasture productivity and grazing
pressure by the selection of sown pastures better adapted to climate changes, the
introduction of adaptive stocking rate strategies.
In Ethiopia Feyssa and Gemeda [22] concluded that Semi-arid areas are more
fragile to the adverse effect of climate change because they already suffer from
erratic rainfall and rising temperatures. The author suggested ways to overcome
the unfavorable impacts of climate change such as community adaptation to these
climatic hazards by employing certain mechanisms (e.g. the use of developed
rainwater-harvesting techniques, diversifying crop varieties, and improved agro
forestry practices).
In Zimbabwe Mubaya and Mafongoya [23] reviewed the role of institutions in
managing local level climate change adaptation. They noted that the growing role
of the public and private institutions in facilitating adaptation to climate changes
through institutional frameworks falls far from the requisite capacity. They attributed
this shortage to being under-resourced and fragmented. The authors also noted the
fuzziness and fluidity of institutional categorization on the ground. They highlighted
the Agrawal and Perrin [24] remarks on ongoing research opportunities to mitigate
climate change impacts that this type of research provides options tend to focus more
on technology and infrastructure alternatives for reducing vulnerabilities, with little
focus on social or institutional alternatives.
Indians Tripathi and Mishra [25] took measures to mitigate and climate change
impact like improved crop seeds, livestock, and fish culture; water use efficiency;
pest management; improved farm practices; nutrient management; agriculture insurance; credit support; markets; access to information; and livelihood diversification
strategies.
In Bangladesh Bangladesh is affected by pollution emitted from India’s (surrounding country) power plants (3% of global emission). India is the 4th largest polluter
in the world [4]. This author expected that agricultural activities (the main source of
the Bangladesh economy), would receive a severe setback along with forest and general ecological destruction and anticipated that there will be no vegetation left into
receive the benefit of enhanced growth. There have been efforts by the Bangladesh
government to combat pollution and emitted greenhouse gas to alleviate the impacts
of climatic changes like the promulgation of the Environment Pollution Control
Ordinance [4]. This ordinance was meant to deal with the regulations of industrial
discharge. Also, [26] showed the commitment of the government to (achieve carbon
dioxide neutrality). Also, Bangladesh is recognized as the most vulnerable country
