Abstract:
Climate change, a growing number of voices in media and policy circles, warn is raising the risk of severe weather condition, ushering-in: poor agricultural yield, near-extinction of cherished flora and fauna and violent conflict in the twenty-first century across the globe .In Nigeria, the cereal-productive Sudan savannah ecology is transiting to poor Sahel and the influence of the Sahara is increasing southwards, therefore, the searchlight is beamed towards agriculture in Nigeria. What is needed is an honest and open debate about how to build a resilient society. Adaptation remains a suitable and necessary public policy choice. Published data from different sources as acknowledged in the text were used. In a situation of unbearable climatic change and its attendant negative effects, adaptable initiatives and responses were recommended.
