Abstract:
Two of the biggest external sources of uncertainties in farmers’ livelihoods are 1) impacts of changes
in the mean and fluctuations of annual rainfall and shifts in seasons; and 2) market fluctuations
of agricultural products. Tree and Farming System Resilience to Climate Change and Market
Fluctuations (Treesilience)1 uses focus-group discussions to encourage farmers to 1) identify the
fluctuations that cause shocks to their livelihoods in a guided process thinking though the shocksexposure-
responses-capacity chain; 2) reveal the impacts of the shocks to their farming systems;
3) characterize the impacts of the shocks on dominant tree species; and 4) semi-quantitatively assess
the price fluctuations of dominant tree products.
