This assessment describes seven important climatic impact drivers for subregions in Benin, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, India, Kenya, Madagascar, and Tunisia. It shows how the climatic impact drivers are projected to change under two climate change trajectories in the future (2030, 2050 and 2080) and provides a basis for the identification of climate risks in the agricultural sector. The presented drivers are mean temperature, mean precipitation, precipitation cycle, very hot days, heavy precipitation frequency and intensity as well as extremely dry months.

Supplementary guidance material for the interpretation of the assessments is available in French and English.
