Discussion

Observational analysis showed changes in maize and groundnut yields in Gombe State, indicating environmental pressures.

Vegetation cover decreased by 72.125 hectares, highlighting climate change impacts on local ecosystems.
Maize yield was strongly correlated with rainfall between 1986 and 1994, revealing climate sensitivity.
The research utilized Landsat ETM+ satellite imagery to analyze land cover changes in Gombe State.
Adaptive strategies by farmers, such as improved crop varieties, may help mitigate negative climate effects.

Mallam et al. (2025) studied this question.
