摘要

干旱是南非气候的一个不可避免的特点。它的缓慢发作和复发威胁到依赖农业的生计。对干旱的应对大多是事后影响管理,在脆弱地区几乎没有事前恢复能力建设。由于缺乏熟练的人力资本来及时有效地预测和应对干旱的影响,特别是在小农户农业地区,事前战略的实施受到了严重挑战。因此,人力资本开发应作为一项关键的干旱管理战略予以优先考虑。在这方面,重要的是确定农民和农业专业人员目前和未来对干旱管理能力发展的需求。这一点很重要,因为干旱预计会增加风险,并带来新的风险,对农业的破坏性影响要大得多。目前的审查概述了干旱对南非农业技能的影响和前进的道路。

Drought's implications on agricultural skills in South Africa
Drought is an inevitable feature of South Africa's climate. Its slow onset and recurrence threaten livelihoods dependent on agriculture. Responses to drought have mostly been ex-post impact management with little ex-ante resilience building in vulnerable areas. Implementation of ex-ante strategies has been severely challenged by lack of skilled human capital to predict and respond timely and effectively to the impacts of drought, particularly in smallholder farming areas. Human capital development, should therefore, be prioritised as a key drought management strategy. In this regard, it is important to determine farmers and agricultural professionals’ current and future needs for capacity development in drought management. This is important given that drought is projected to increase risks and introduce new ones with far more devastating impacts on agriculture. The current review outlines the implications of drought on agricultural skills in South Africa and the way forward.
