  • Khan et al. (2022) studied "The Impact of Climate Change on Rural Farmers in Developing Countries." This literature review investigates the effects of climate change on smallholder farmers in rural areas of developing nations. According to the review, smallholder farmers have significant adverse effects from climate change, such as decreasing crop yields, increased pest and disease challenges, and restricted access to water resources. If farmers are forced to spend more on inputs and might find it difficult to sell their produce in unstable markets, these effects are likely to be made worse by rising food costs. The review emphasizes the value of policies and interventions that help small-scale farmers become more climate resilient. Examples include enhancing water management procedures, promoting sustainable agriculture, and investing in rural infrastructure.  Based on the passage above give a short explanation of what the passage intends for the reader?
