The present study assessed the household-level biophysical vulnerability to climate variability and extreme events of fish farmers in Kitui East Central Sub counties County, Kenya. employed a descriptive survey design total 60 constituted sample. Carefully selected indicators for exposure sensitivity were used operationalize vulnerability. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was assign weights indicators. Biophysical indices indicated that more vulnerable (3.70) as compared (-0.80). In conclusion, revealed high arid semi-arid lands. Therefore, farmers’ access off-farm income their adaptive capacity should be primary target farming stakeholders lack control over environmental factors increase farmers.
