In a world increasingly affected by climate change, Bangladesh’s green agriculture movement offers hope and inspiration. The country is forging a path towards sustainability, helping farmers adapt, and ensuring that agriculture remains a cornerstone of the nation’s economy. Through climate-smart farming practices, Bangladesh is not just surviving but thriving in the face of uncertainty, writes Mosabber Hossain.

Lightning strikes are increasingly claiming lives in the vast haor regions of Bangladesh. With no protection, farmers and fishers working in the haors were the most affected. Lightning sheds constructed in close proximity to the haors and their houses offer them protection during intense storms, writes Mosabber Hossain. Farming families in Sunamganj were spending more time harvesting, threshing and drying paddy in the last week of April this year, so as to finish the works before the rains.
