Climate change poses a significant threat to smallholder farmers by altering rainfall patterns, increasing temperatures, and intensifying extreme weather events. These changes result in reduced crop yields, water scarcity, greater vulnerability pests, threatening food security livelihoods. In Ethiopia, particularly the Haramaya District, livelihoods of people are predominantly reliant on subsistence rain-fed agriculture, rendering highly vulnerable impacts climate change. The resilience is closely tied their ability adapt changing climatic conditions. severe challenges for maintaining agricultural Therefore, this study was conducted examine adaptation strategies adopted Oromia National Regional State, Ethiopia.

Ethiopia is a rainfall-based agricultural country that susceptible to the impacts of climate change and risk. Floods droughts, which happen more frequently intensely, significantly negatively influence production. The objective meta-analysis identify on various sectors, adaptation strategies, challenges in Ethiopian context. Twenty-three peer-reviewed articles were identified from ScienceDirect Web Science, followed by PRISMA guidelines, analyzed using Stata version 13. results reveal agriculture (by changing crop suitability, phenology, productivity), environment, society, resulting shifting temperature rainfall patterns. Temperature variations, patterns precipitation, severe weather conditions have profound implications for productivity, water resources, ecosystems, human well-being, are multifaceted interlinked. In addition, reviewed informed us farmers used different coping strategies response change, such as soil conservation, agroforestry practices, integrated fertility management, small-scale irrigation, application improved varieties, use livestock, mixed cropping, early late planting, practice income-generating activities. random effects meta-regression result shows effective implementation above-mentioned practices reduces risk sectors. assessment also points out many realization these approaches, lack financing, institutional support, insufficient stakeholder involvement, ecological sociocultural factors, limited access information. concludes addressing requires holistic approaches encompass sustainable land social resilience-building help resilience communities ecosystems face climate.

Conventional agriculture harms the environment and threatens sustainability. To address these issues, sustainable agricultural practices (SAPs) have become imperative. This study utilizes a meta-analysis approach to comprehensively assess empirical studies, investigate impact of SAPs on crop productivity, identify influencing factors, examine their temporal evolution. The findings reveal that (1) SAP adoption significantly positively influences with multiple exhibiting most substantial impact, followed by technology. Individuals who adopted achieved productivity was 980 kilograms per hectare higher than those did not. (2) Factors such as age, farm size, family livestock units, credit access, off-farm income, market distance, cooperative membership negatively affect whereas education extension services positive impact. (3) effects strengthen over time. strengthening variables time implies gradual increase in farmer awareness, access resources, SAPs, highlighting evolving role driving them. Accordingly, none past researchers identified any patterns productivity. Therefore, promoting prioritizing can offer farmers experience support, thereby enhancing Future initiatives should therefore combine interdisciplinary methods, technology, community involvement for ensuring SAP’s sustainability scalability.
