Given the unpredictability, increasing frequency and severity of climatic events, it is crucial to determine adaptation limits agroecological strategies adopted by farmers in a range environments. In times drought many smallholders’ cope with stress using series crop diversification soil management strategies. Intercropping agroforestry systems complemented mulching copious organic matter applications can increase water storage, enhancing crops’ use efficiency. Although an overwhelming number studies demonstrate that these designs practices are associated greater farm-level resilience, important recognize resilience. The aim this paper assess limitations ability agroecosystems adapt climate change under extended which may overwhelm response. A set extend such prolonged scenarios described. Two methodologies farms’ resilience provide useful tools, as they assist researchers identifying underlying mechanisms reduce vulnerability enhance response capacity allowing certain farm better resist and/or recover from droughts. Clearly, reducing exposure requires collective actions beyond scale (i.e. restoring local watersheds optimize hydrological cycles) aspects not explored herein. When events compounded uncertainties imposed external economic political conditions, farmers’ abilities overcome adversity be reduced, emphasizing importance policy support, dimension scope review.
