  Arising from recommended: the findings, the following are agencies i. The Nigerian Meteorological Agency and agricultural should extension strengthen climate monitoring systems and improve the timely dissemination of seasonal rainfall and temperature forecasts to farmers in Gwagwalada Area Council, given the demonstrated divergence rainfall and temperature trends across the upper, middle and lower zones. in ii. Agricultural extension services should assist farmers in aligning planting calendars with the onset and seasonal distribution of rainfall specific to their zone, rather than applying a uniform planting recommendation across the Area Council. iii. Research rainfall intensify flowering, given institutions should the development and dissemination of maize varieties tolerant of both moisture stress during the reproductive stage and elevated the temperature during demonstrated sensitivity of maize yield to JJAS and MAM maximum temperature. including Post-harvest handling improved drying and storage facilities, should be extended to farmers in the upper and rot middle zones associated with increased OND rainfall during the harvest period. the maize support, reduce to iv.
