There are enough solutions out there that can help farmers to address climate change, says Olu Ajayi of CTA in this interview. It was most important to support farmers onsite to practically take advantage of already existing practices and solve their problems at hand.

What CTA had done, was to go through the whole of the African, Caribbean and Pacific states to get information on farmers’ practices and policies and then make use of exisiting ICT tools.

"We have examples of how to use ICT tools,, which can help farmers disseminate information on climate change -- what kind of crop to plant, what kind of seed to plant, what time should they be planting them. We are proving that ICTs can contribute to helping farmers to address climate change.”
