“…That is, as there is greater climate divergence across different States in India, it is not meaningful to consider countrylevel panel and generalize the findings at All-India level; hence, this study is limited to major chickpea cultivating districts in Andhra Pradesh only. This is also true for studies in other countries like Carew et al (2017); Feroze et al (2020); Raju and Pratiti (2020), and Agossou et al (2021). Considering the importance, this study examines the impact of climate change variables on the mean and variability of chickpea yields in Andhra Pradesh by employing the widely used Just and Pope production function (Sarker et al, 2019).…”

“…It was also evident from high CV values (>40%) that in both these districts, the rainfall is highly erratic compared to other districts. However, there is not much variation (CV) regarding maximum and minimum temperature across the selected districts (Humayun, 2015;Feroze, 2020;Samira et al, 2020).…”

Farmers usually do not know the precise output that is affected by climatic factors such as temperature and rainfall and are characterized by inter-annual variability, part of which is caused by global climate change. No study covers the influences of climate factors on yield and yield risk in the context of chickpea farming in Andhra Pradesh, India. In this context, this study aimed to investigate the trends in climate change variables during Rabi season (October to January, 1996-2020) and evaluated their variability on chickpea yields across different agro-climatic zones in Andhra Pradesh by employing Just and Pope production function. Four non-parametric methods-Alexandersson’s Standard Normal Homogeneity Test, Buishand’s Range Test, Pettitt’s Test and Von Neumann’s Ratio Test are applied to detect homogeneity in the data. Mann–Kendall (MK) test and Sen’s slope (SS) method were employed to analyze monthly rainfall trends and minimum and maximum temperature trends. Results of Just and Pope (panel data) quadratic and Cobb-Douglas methods revealed that monthly minimum temperature positively influenced the mean yield of chickpea (0.22% and 0.16%, respectively). However, rainfall (-0.41% and -0.31%) and maximum temperature (-0.08% and -0.04%) negatively influenced the mean yield of chickpea under quadratic and Cobb-Douglas models, respectively. Accordingly, rainfall (0.08% and 0.06%) and maximum temperature (0.83% and 0.72%) positively influenced the yield variability and minimum temperature (-0.77% and -0.67%) reduced yield variability of chickpea under quadratic and Cobb-Douglas models respectively. In view of these findings, it is imperative to advocate the farmers about the importance of cultivating drought-tolerant chickpea varieties, drought-proofing and mitigation strategies, micro-irrigation practices and improving their access to agro-meteorological information towards sustainable chickpea cultivation in Andhra Pradesh.

“…Climate change has taken a heavy toll on this region's already undeveloped hill production practices. Due to the absence of other employment opportunities and planned initiatives in the hills, people's livelihood are likely to be severely affected owing to this climate risk (Feroze et al, 2019). Tripura, a northeastern state, is home to both tripuries and nontripuries .…”

Climate change is a harsh reality that has a significant impact on livelihood strategies in general, and agricultural-based ones in particular. Agriculture is the principal source of livelihood in the majority of North Eastern states, including Tripura. In the absence of alternate employment opportunities and planned activities, people’s livelihoods are likely to suffer as a result of climatic variability. In this context, the LVIIPCC technique has been used to explain the extent of climate vulnerability among tribal viz-a-viz nontribal population of Tripura. A total of 400 respondents from 40 villages of two districts in Tripura are surveyed based on a combination of informal interviews, a questionnaire survey, and Focused Group Discussions (FGD). The findings suggested that tribal households were more exposed to climate change. Furthermore, because of their greater sensitivity and lesser adaptation capacity, they were more likely to be vulnerable to climate change than non tribal households. The findings provide a scientific basis for policymakers in rural Tripura to priorities options to strengthen livelihood capitals and climate change adaptation ability.

“…Similarly the land application of manure has to be monitored else it may cause environmental concerns (primarily eutrophication). Research studies are being conducted to explore the diverse management practices and better treatment technologies that will help in mitigating the environmental concerns arising from livestock production facilities and application of waste products released from manure (Feroze et al 2010).…”

Background: Utilization of livestock waste and by products are always considered to be an important source of livelihood for environment protection and agricultural development. The study explores the prospective scope of livestock waste utilization by dwelling into the livestock holdings and their health profile, waste management and bio-security practices for sustainable livelihoods of small and marginal livestock farmers of tribal belts. Methods: With an empirical survey, an analysis is made on the waste management practices in selective states of North East India (Assam, Meghalaya and Nagaland). The percentage and average method were applied to understand the management practices of pig production system. In the qualitative tools mainly Focused Group Discussion (FGD) and Interview methods were used to understand the perception of people on waste management. Result: It is found that the untreated waste is utilized in field and only 2% of farmers use the manure in pisciculture where waste is used in its integrated form. A comprehensive model of treating and marketing the livestock waste and by products with the application of modern technology can not only contribute in augmenting the income but will also help in quality restoration of natural resources in rural areas.
