RURAL WOMEN'S DAY WITH RAINS UNRELIABLE, MALAWI'S FARMERS HARNESS SUN INSTEAD

As climate change upends farming in the drought-prone southern African country, growers like Rosie Jameson are profiting from solar-powered irrigation schemes. For five years straight Rosie Jameson, a mother of two and subsistence farmer in southern Malawi, couldn't grow nearly enough on her one-hectare plot to feed her family. Persistently severe drought--now a staple in a region where temperatures continue rising at twice the global average-saw to that. She lives in the village of Joseph in the country's drought-prone south, where most farmers routinely rely on the rain-fed cultivation of plots too small and too parched to feed their families.
