- Observation Maximum temperature, minimum temperature and precipitation showed no trend in the overall data.
- Observation Wetter areas were more prevalent in the Lake Victoria basin and Highlands East of Rift Valley than other regions.
- Observation Precipitation declined spatially in wetter areas without statistical significance.
- Observation Maximum temperature increased spatially in dry areas without statistical significance.
- Association Maize yield was strongly positively correlated with climatic parameters in Lake Victoria basin, Highlands East of Rift Valley, Coastal Strip and North Western Regions.
- Recommendation The authors recommend policies and frameworks to build adaptive capacity and resilience to climate change.
