Resilience of farmers and breeders in the Entremont region of Valais
The Greater Entremont region of the Valais is particularly sensitive to deteriorating climatic conditions, which are detrimental to forage resources due to repeated droughts caused by climate change. The aim of this project is to help farmers and stockbreeders in the valleys of the Grand Entremont to draw up an assessment based on a field survey of agricultural stakeholders, in order to consider future strategies for adapting to and mitigating the effects of current changes.
