The fact that climate has been changing in the past and it continues to change in the future implies the need to understand how farmers perceive and adapt climate change to guide strategies for adaptation in the future. This study assesses the farmers’ perception of climate change and adaptation in Meket district. It was based on data generated from two kebeles and 176 sample farmers from which 77 households were from woyna dega and 99 households from Dega agro-ecological zones. The result revealed that there is an increment of the temperature of the district under study by 2.1oC in the past two decades. Similarly, according to the data gathered from Ethiopia National Meteorological Service Agency, there was a declining trend of rainfall in the past two decades keeping that the existence of high variability. The maximum rainfall was observed in 2013(annual rainfall of 1325.4mm), while the lowest annual rainfall was recorded in 2004(689.5mm). As understood from focus group discussion and key informant interview, the frequency of drought had increased from decade to decade, i.e. in the beginning there was a drought every ten years, next every five years, in the end, every two years. The results of the logit model applied to analyze factors affecting farmers’ perception of climate change and adaptation. The results revealed that respondents' age, sex, educational status, family size, access to information, farming experience, access to credit, and access to the market have a significant positive or negative effect on farmers' perception of climate change and adaptation. Besides, it indicates that female-headed households were more likely to perceive climate change and take up adaptation methods as they are more affected by climate change. As understood from the study, farmers who live in woyna Dega agro-ecological zone better perceived climate change more than farmers in dega. Moreover, access to credit has a negative and significant effect on climate perception and adaptation.
