Resumo(s)
The objective of this work is to develop a simple methodology for high resolution crop suitability
analysis under current and future climate, easily applicable and useful in Least
Developed Countries. The approach addresses both regional planning in the context of
climate change projections and pre-emptive short-term rural extension interventions
based on same-year agricultural season forecasts, while implemented with off-the-shelf
resources. The developed tools are applied operationally in a case-study developed in
three regions of Guinea-Bissau and the obtained results, as well as the advantages
and limitations of methods applied, are discussed. In this paper we show how a simple
approach can easily generate information on climate vulnerability and how it can be operationally
used in rural extension services
