Various studies have shown that sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is highly vulnerable to the impact of climate change because of its overreliance on rain-fed agricultural production and that this sphere of production is highly susceptible to the vagaries of weather and climate. Climate change impacts on agricultural production ranges from low outputs to fluctuations in market supply and the price of food commodities. In this study, various works of literature were systematically reviewed to highlight the trends in climate change in SSA and its impact on agricultural production. Our findings show that the impacts of climate change in this region are already significant, as evidenced in the average temperature and rainfall fluctuations, as well as in the intensity of extreme weather events. Additionally, climate change is proving to be unpredictable, with its severity being reflected in the limited scale of agricultural production in SSA. Ascribed to the current manifestations of climate change, agricultural production is being affected by the prospect of reduced yields, attributed to the relatively shorter length of the growing season, which affects the availability, accessibility, and price of food products. This review also sets out to verify the widespread belief that SSA is the region most severely affected by climate change. It confirms the fact that in order to improve agricultural productivity and sustainability, policymakers should prioritize the development and implementation of specific policies/programmes concerning adaptation strategies and promotions in the farming industry in an overall attempt to mitigate the effects of climate change. Consequenlty, strengthening the resilience of agricultural production techniques, improving human adaptability, and developing a project-based early warning system for weather reports would be the necessary steps to take.
