The primary focus of this paper is on farmers adaptation strategies against climatic variability in arid and semi-arid regions of India. The farmers perceptions and coping practices are largely governed by village level variables governed by the weather conditions. The paper is based on the syn...

Enhancing farmers adaptation to climate change in arid and semi-arid agriculture of India: evidences from indigenous practices
The climate change has been recognized by the world community as a potential threat to environment, ecosystem, and development. The impacts are not spatially similar and Asia s rural poor are more challenged of its consequences. ICRISAT with support of ADB have tracked the climatic trends, identi...

This paper examines the relationship between local institutions and adaptation to climate variability in four semi-arid villages in India. Based on a qualitative survey, it draws attention to the constraints that farming households face, the role of institutions, and the implications for their ca...

Maintaining high levels of productivity under climate change will require developing cultivars that are able to perform under varying drought and heat stresses and with maturities that match water availability. The CSM-CERES-Sorghum model was used to quantify the potential benefits of altering cr...

Climate change is projected to intensify drought and heat stress in groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) crop in rainfed regions. This will require developing high yielding groundnut cultivars that are both drought and heat tolerant. The crop growth simulation model for groundnut (CROPGRO-Groundnut mo...
