Abstract

Sub-seasonal forecasts provide forecast information on the 1-4 week timescale and are produced by a number of global weather forecast providers, including the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). The development and application of new sub-seasonal forecasting products in the agricultural sectors of Ghana and Kenya are described. Using a co-production approach transforms the role of the forecast user from merely a recipient of forecast information to being involved in the forecast product development process. Experiences of co-producing sub-seasonal forecast products for agricultural application in Kenya and Ghana. [Extracted from the article]
