Question

slogans to create awareness in farmers about crop selection and cultivation should be based on availability of water

Answer 1

As a result of this behavior change, farmers’ upfront costs for inputs fell by 20%, and crop productivity increased by 5-10%, improving farmer incomes by up to one-third. In addition, the project’s training and extension services, provided directly to over 33,000 farmers in two provinces in the Mekong Delta for three cropping seasons, allowed the farmers to become aware of greenhouse gas emissions reduction achieved through the water management techniques.

Answer 2

Let me give this a try;

• The farmers should always be very keen when it comes to deciding on the type of crop to be cultivated and the climate of the region to cultivate their crops.
• There are crops that require a lot of water in order to make their cultivation viable and possible for example rice. before any farmer decides on rice cultivation availability of water should be a factor.
• There are some crops which may need some water during their start but with time they may need a drier climate for their cultivation to be effective.
• The type of crop and the climate of the region are key factors that a farmer should consider before deciding on any crop cultivation.
