In Kenya, the MICCA Programme, in collaboration with the East African Dairy Development Project (EADD), is focusing on introducing climate‐smart agriculture into the livestock sector. The objec tive of this socio‐economic survey is to collect data on current livelihoods and agricultural practices, and gain a greater knowledge about the impacts of climate change among small‐holder farmers in the project areas. The survey design should be utilized in the same way or adjusted as a tool to evaluate the outcomes and impacts on the socio‐economic situation of other MICCA Programme activities, such as capacity development and greenhouse gas assessments. In the survey, 357 households were visi ted by six enumerators in six locations at the Kaptumo EADD site. Focus groups and key informants were also interviewed. The households were selected randomly and are representative of the locations.
