With current global climate change conditions, the urgency to provide agricultural knowledge on adaptation has risen. The dearth of climate change information is one amongst many agricultural production challenges faced by the majority of rural farming communities. This study aimed to identify smallholder farmers' sources of climate change information and constraints to their coping and adaptation. Descriptive statistical tools, mean scores and the 'problem confrontation index' (PCI) were used to assess and describe the study's findings. Analysis revealed that public extension services play a minute role in rural farmers' climate change knowledge; they get their information elsewhere. The most critical constraint to climate change coping and adaptation in the study area was lack of access to agricultural extension services.
