Nepal National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) Official Document - September 2010

Adaptation aspects in major sectors like forestry, agriculture, water resources and health are presented in Nepal's National Communication and NAPA. Adaptation measure to Climate Change could be approached by intensifying the conservation of drought resistant crop varieties by improving cropping practices to conserve water; and by promoting crop diversification. Several aspects of the vulnerability and impact analysis in agriculture sector can also be improved, for example, development of improved climate scenarios, development of more suitable crop models, and search for alternative analytical approaches.
