Abstract

Objective
Climate change is a serious threat to global agriculture, especially in areas where crop productivity is closely linked to environmental factors such as rainfall and temperature. Although the risk associated with climate change is well recognized, limited empirical research has discovered the effect domestically in rural, agricultural -free fields. This study examines the effect of climate change on domestic food security, identifies large climate voltages and examines socio -economic factors that form adapted reactions from farmers.
Materials and methods
Three decades of climate data (1980–2024) were analyzed to assess temperature and rainfall. A total of 190 Smallholder farmers were selected through simple random samples, and data was collected using structured interviews and focus group discussions to include both quantitative and qualitative insight. Descriptive statistics and analysis of binary logistic region was used to evaluate the relationship between domestic characteristics and food security status.
Results
The findings indicate that irregular rainfall patterns, growing temperatures, multiplied soil erosion, and an upward push in pest and disease outbreaks have adversely affected agricultural productiveness inside the have a look at location. Based on caloric consumption thresholds, 61.5% of the surveyed families had been categorized as food insecure. Statistical evaluation discovered that age, own family size, cultivated land vicinity, and precipitation stages were extensive predictors (p < 0.04) of family food security. Notably, 68.9% of the farmers mentioned enforcing adaptive strategies, consisting of crop diversification, adoption of stepped forward crop sorts, livestock rearing, and engagement in alternative profits-producing activities. These adaptive responses reflect developing cognizance and resilience at the network level.
Conclusions
The take a look at emphasizes the significance of enhancing get admission to climate information, strengthening women's involvement in agricultural livelihoods, and enhancing institutional aid for model techniques. Promoting weather-smart agricultural practices and sustainable land management could be critical in addressing the food security challenges associated with ongoing climatic adjustments. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of climate change on domestic food security in agricultural societies and identify socio -economic and adaptation factors affecting the flexibility of small farmers.
