Short version: Cabo Verde, a Small Island Developing State boosts its resilience to climate change with the support of South-South Cooperation 
Climate change and prolonged droughts pose an ever-increasing threat to agriculture in Cabo Verde.
Through the FAO-China South-South Cooperation programme, a group of Chinese experts pass on their knowledge and expertise to Cabo Verdean farmers and livestock producers to fight pests, manage soil and animal production, and offer other useful techniques in adapting to the effects of climate change.

Script Cabo Verde, a Small Island Developing State boosts its resilience to climate change with the support of South-South Cooperation.

Willy Gonçalves, farmer, Cabo Verde:

"Cabo Verde is having difficulties because of climate change.

Agriculture isn’t good because of the drought.

When I was nine I studied, but I also worked here half day.

Now I'm the person in charge here.

Here in Santiago, many vegetable gardens are abandoned.
They are abandoned due to lack of water,
either because water source has dried up or because water is salty.
Cabo Verde is an archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of West Africa. "

Climate change and prolonged droughts
pose an ever-increasing threat to agriculture.

An FAO-China South-South Cooperation Project is underway to help tackle the challenges through knowledge sharing and technologies.

Jie Xu, Ambassador of China to Cabo Verde:

"The China-FAO-Cabo Verde South-South Cooperation Project
aims to help Cabo Verde improve the food and nutrition system
and promote the sustainable development of agriculture,
livestock industry and blue economy
through agricultural technical assistance and cooperation."

Katya Neves, Assistant FAO Representative (Programme), Cabo Verde:

"The project has a pool of seven (Chinese) experts in different areas covering agriculture, pest management, soil management, fertilization.

They have started with the trainings with the livestock producers,
and they have been conducting trainings in how to produce animal feeds with the materials that we have here.
So they have taken the experience they have in China, and they have adapted it to Cabo Verde."

Yanhua Zeng,  Expert on horticulture and soil:

"After the trials, we will establish a standard for biological pest control, which will be promoted in Cape Verde. This will greatly improve the efficiency of crop pest control on a large scale, significantly reducing the yield losses caused by pests and ensuring an increase in grain and horticultural crop production."

Willy Gonçalves, farmer, Cabo Verde:

"I learnt how to fertilize the soil, combat pests, especially the Fall Armyworm.

We also learned about producing organic fertilisers with animal manure. "

Gilberto Silva, Minister for Agriculture and Environment, Cabo Verde:


"This cooperation allows us to reinforce our producers and technicians’ capabilities, bring in technology,
share knowledge and technology between China and Cabo Verde with FAO’s help."
