After an especially dry season in Burkina Faso, 33-year-old Kakuy Ouanko, a father of three, is contemplating giving up farming. “We probably won’t be able to feed the family,” he says while walking through his dry cotton field. Kakuy’s experience is similar to that of other cotton farmers in Burkina Faso, who are vulnerable to the threats of climate change. That’s why IFC – International Finance Corporation is working with West Africa’s largest cotton company to train farmers on climate-smart ways to make the most of scarce resources. http://wrld.bg/luCy30hefTZ #IFCmarkets[fb_vid id=”2208981199127624″]
