The production climatic environment is mostly optimal, and total cropfailure has not been reported so far. Farmers who settled in this region, utilizing practices developed in more humid regions, experienced a high incidence of cropfailure. Their standards of living were near or below subsistence level at times of cropfailure. The latter are generally characterized by low yields and cropfailure. Maize yields are generally low and cropfailure is widespread. Bunch (1982) also points out that the social consequences of a cropfailure are high. Thus, even in the worst drought situation, the farmers minimized the risk of total cropfailure. In dry years, however, the planting of short-, medium- and long-duration varieties is a useful strategy to avoid the risk of total cropfailure. Several organic farmers pointed out that economic losses suffered from early-season cropfailure may be compensated for with economic gains from lateseason crops. Exposing farmers to varietal choices will highlight the importance of increasing overall variability to cope with cropfailure conditions. After all costs have been incurred there is a strictly positive probability of cropfailure, possibly due to disease, in which case output to market is zero. Reicovsky et al., (1977) claim that conservation practices, to some extent, modify future risks of cropfailure by conserving moisture. Importantly, the model successfully simulated the cropfailure in 1991+92, and the low biomass produced in that season (simulated 500 kg ha71 biomass compared to 580 kg ha71 observed). Another push factor mentioned in the retrospective accounts is that poor harvests or cropfailure could reduce the need for labour in the local community and give rise to migration. Detailed information on the extent of cropfailure, the state of markets and people's responses created the capacity for central control of famine policy, but also for improved effectiveness. Conversely, the model showed that compensation in the event of cropfailure does not ensure greater long-term stability of intercropping if yields of the surviving crop are too low. In addition to using special forms of yam magic to ensure successful yam growth, yam growers also observe a number of taboos to prevent cropfailure. However, the experience of many farmers of no-tillage suggests greater short-term risk, in the form of reduced seedling emergence or crop yield or even cropfailure.
