Abstract | This project aimed to develop, customise and promote seasonal climate forecast (SCF) technologies to improve the management of irrigated agricultural production systems in Lombok, Indonesia. The climate of Lombok is highly variable being significantly influenced by the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon, which greatly affects the productivity of the predominantly rice-based local agriculture. By customising ENSO-based SCF technologies for use in regional agricultural management and planning, there is significant potential to increase Lombok's agricultural productivity and revenue in favourable seasons and reduce the risk of crop losses in dry years and prolonged droughts. To achieve this, the objectives of the project embodied a range of decision support and 'systems modelling' development, capacity-building and information dissemination components including: |
