Description This brief summarizes a work that has been conducted in
2020 to provide seasonal and intra-seasonal climate
forecasts and advisories to smallholder farmers amid the
Covid-19 pandemic in Ethiopia. The work involved (i)
preparation of seasonal outlook for the main rainy
season, (ii) translation of the forecasts into advisories,
and (iii) communication of advisories to smallholders to
serve for tactical decision making. Similar steps were
followed to generate 10 to 15 days forecasts and
advisories and communicating them to smallholders
together with COVID-19 status updates and awareness messages.
