Perceived climate risks and adaptation drivers in diverse coffee landscapes of Uganda

Abstract

• Prolonged drought and seasonal shifts led to perceived crop loss and food shortage.• Specific adaptation practices in Robusta systems: herbicide use and livestock.• Structural technologies were common in Arabica systems for soil/water retention.• Awareness, policy engagements, land area and access to markets determined adoption.• Adaptation packages should address landscape and farm-household system diversity.
