Abstract: This study investigated the influence of incorporating feedback from agricultural information users in agricultural communication systems and identified coping strategies for adaptation to climate change by smallholder farmers of Kenya. Food production, especially in Kilifi district, has been declining over the years, lowering food sufficiency to about 30 percent down, from 50 percent. This has persisted with continued changes in climate, despite all the efforts put in by the government and non governmental agencies.
