To face the circumstances from changed climate system effective adaptation actions and knowledge transfer is needed. This survey was conducted to find out socio-economic aspects, floral diversity cultivated, yield performance of cultivated crops, diversification of this technology, and also to find out the problems related to cultivation of this system. It was found that both sexes participate almost equally that leads to gender equity. In addition, a diversification in construction materials, fertilizers uses, yield purposes and crops cultivated were also found.
