  • The impact of smallholder farmers’ knowledge on climate change adaptation on food security in Tanzania (2024) · Cogent Social Sciences · cited 3× · doi

    While research has proposed farm-level strategies to mitigate these impacts, empirical evidence on the effectiveness of local knowledge adaptation strategies and their influence on food security outcomes remains scarce.
