Farmers in semi-arid West Africa understand the value of water, how it limits crop production and how essential it is to survival. They must contend with unreliable rainfall, short, unpredictable rainy seasons, and increasingly frequent natural hazards. Moreover, climate change may exacerbate all three. To sustain their livelihoods, farmers need good strategies for capturing and conserving rainfall and making the best use of it.
