苏丹-萨赫勒地区过去20年的农村发展和未来的变化情景进行了研究，使用案例研究，家庭访谈和情景评估的Meta分析。家庭的财富普遍增加，特别是当他们从农业转向多样化时。雨养作物种植比牲畜对气候因素更敏感，但一般来说，气候因素对当地土地利用和生计战略的直接作用有限。农业部门需要得到强有力的支持才能在该地区保持重要地位，非农工作和移民可能会继续增加，这可能会降低脆弱性。皇家气象学会
Rural development in the Sudano‐Sahelian region during the past 20 years and future scenarios of change were studied using meta‐analysis of case studies, household interviews and scenario assessment. Households have generally increased their wealth, especially when they diversify out of agriculture. Rain‐fed crop cultivation is more sensitive to climate factors than livestock, but generally climate factors play a limited direct role for local land use and livelihood strategies. The agricultural sector needs strong support to remain important in the region and off‐farm work and migration are likely to continue to increase, which may decrease vulnerability.
