The impacts of climate change  and variability on Kenya's agricultural sector  is of great  concern  to policy makers, researchers, development partners, farmers and other stakeholders.It is a big threat to achieving food security. 

The effects of climate change and variability are characterised by increased frequency of drought and floods, changes in weather patterns, high rainfall intensity and increased incidence of pest and diseases outbreaks. 

Climate smart agriculture aims to achieve food security  and broader development goals under  a changing climate and increasing  food demand.
