  • Geospatial Assessment of Climate Variability Impacts on Agricultural Systems and Carbon Sequestration under Regenerative Farming Practices: A Systematic Review (2026) · Asian Journal of Advanced Research and Reports · doi

    The review identifies major structural gaps in the literature, including inadequate integration of climate, agriculture, and carbon dynamics; limited long-term and multiscalar studies; insufficient ground validation; methodological inconsistencies; and substantial geographical underrepresentation of climate-vulnerable regions such as Sub-Saharan Africa.

  • Climate change adaptation strategies in farming systems (2026) · World Journal of Advanced Research and Reviews · doi

    There is a need to identify effective adaptation strategies that can help agricultural systems address the challenges of climate change. The existing literature on climate change adaptation in agriculture has significant gaps, particularly in terms of context-specific combinations of biophysical, technological, and institutional interventions.

  • Weathering the Storm: Assessing the Effects of Climate Change on Subsistence Farming in Wegdraai Village (2026) · International Journal of Applied Research in Business and Management · doi

    There is a need to understand the effects of climate change on subsistence farming in Southern Africa. There is a gap in knowledge on the impact of climate change on smallholder farmers. The study aims to address this gap by investigating the effects of climate change on subsistence farming in Wegdraai Village.

  • Climate Shocks and Sustainable Household Food Security in Eastern DRC: Causal Evidence from IV CMP and Pseudo Panel Analysis (2026) · Sustainability · doi

    Climate-related disturbances are increasingly identified as major determinants of food insecurity in fragile environments, yet empirical evidence remains scarce in conflict-affected areas such as the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

  • Historical climate variability extremes and socio-environmental impacts in Ethiopia (2026) · Discover Environment · doi

    Further research is needed to understand the impacts of climate variability and extremes on specific sectors, such as agriculture and health. Studies should focus on developing region-specific adaptation strategies and improving climate services. Research should prioritize the integration of climate science into national development planning.
