Zusammenfassung |
Climate variability and change impact production in rainfed agricultural
systems of the Bolivian highlands. Maximum temperature trends are increasing
for the Altiplano. Minimum temperature increases are significant in the
northern region, and decreases are significant in the southern region. Producers' perceptions of
climate hazards are high in the central region, while concerns with changing
climate and unemployment are high in the north. Similar high-risk
perceptions involve pests and diseases in both regions. Altiplano climate
projections for end-of-century highlights include increases in temperature,
extreme event frequency, change in the timing of rainfall, and reduction of
soil humidity. Successful adaptation to these changes will require the
development of links between the knowledge systems of producers and
scientists. Two-way participatory approaches to develop capacity and
information that involve decision makers and scientists are appropriate
approaches in this context of increased risk, uncertainty and vulnerability. |
