Abstract

The farm–family–household system experiences climate shocks which they respond to in different ways, including migration. But how the shocks drive migration and what impact it has on the living standard of migrant and non-migrant families as well as the possible opportunities for Green SMEs are not well documented. Based on the farming and rural systems approach, the study examined the impact of climate change-induced migration on rural households using descriptive and regression tools including endogenous switching regression. The results indicate that climate shocks present both positive and negative opportunities for farm families and those migrant’s households are not necessarily better off. The study recommends developing baskets of Green SMEs targeted at different farming systems as viable options in responding to climate change shocks.
