Women transplant rice seedlings. They are members of a farmers group, which is helping them and the other farmers learn how to grow stronger, heartier crops in the face of worsening drought. 

Lombok is extremely vulnerable to climate change, with shorter rainy seasons and longer dry seasons that put precious harvests at risk. 

Mercy Corps has helped the farmers group he mentors endure drought with better farming practices and business training.  

Mercy Corps trains farmers to organize local farmers groups where farmers work together and support each other. They also learn to start agribusinesses to supplement their income.
