摘要

This study examines the effect of human capital on the adoption of coping mechanisms to extreme climatic conditions (drought, flood, and bushfires) by farm households in the Bawku West district of Ghana. Results indicate that literacy level, membership in a farm organization, and access to credit had positive and significant impacts on adaptation to drought. Similarly, source of seeds for planting, and household income had positive significant influence on adaptation to flood. Adaption to bushfire was positively influenced by radio ownership, and farm size. The main effect of the climatic extreme events on households were found to be destruction of crops, livestock and buildings; food and water shortage; poor yield or harvest and limited fields forlivestock grazing.
