Development of guidebook for agricultural practitioners to combat the impacts of Climate Change for Agriculture sector in Sri Lanka

Practitioner's Guide Book on the Best Agricultural Practices for Drought and Floods in Sri Lanka

Prolonged drought and extreme rainfall are the major impacts of Climate Change despite the Sea Level rise which is another major slow on set issue. United Nations Development Programme had developed a wonderful guidebook call "Practitioners' Guide Book on the Best Agricultural Practices for Drought and Floods in Sri Lanka".

This was contributed by Disaster Management Centre, Council for Agriculture Research Policy and a group of academic lecturers in the Faculty of Agriculture of Peradeniya University of Sri Lanka.

The book amulgamated all the best practices (traditional and modern technology's efforts) in to one book in order to over come or/and minimize the agricultural damage due to excessive dry and wet conditions.
