The development of institutional platforms at national, regional and local levels to integrate all aspects related with agricultural practices including weather and climate information Simple planning and decision making tools for farmers to integrate information in decision process and take action. Also enables consideration of scenarios.

5 Major challenges to implement good practices How to feed back the local innovations from farmers to the information providers. Scaling up good practices and taking into account the needs of different target groups. Capacity building at all levels especially extension services. Infrastructure and institutional challenges e.g. electricity, markets

6 Actionable Solutions Consortium or a working group to explore ways to encourage met services to provide analyzed historical climate information. Within the country (across countries) to develop national programs and policy to link climate information with on-going agri. extension prog. and national rural development prog.- keeping in mind the fundamental needs of small farmers Develop weather based agricultural Insurance policy e.g- National drought policy- WMO, FAO, UNCCD
