Changing climate is a serious environmental issue affecting agricultural production all overthe world. India is also facing the problem of increased mean temperature and irregularityof rainfall, and the Konkan region of Maharashtra is also not escaped from this issue. Thestudy was designed and conducted in the northern part of the Konkan region to understandthe constraints experienced by the farmers while adapting the climate change. The studywas carried in four villages of Palghar district with 245 respondents selected byproportionate random sampling method. Major constraints were expressed by the farmerswhile adapting the changing climate were, lack of credence on current weather forecastingsystem, poor accurate weather forecast information, irregular & low voltage capacity powersupply and seven others.

The Impact

Purpose Farmers' adaptation strategies in agricultural production are required to minimise the negative impact of climate change on a nation's food production in developing countries. Based on the panel data of the provincial level in China from 2000 to 2017, this study aims to analyse the changing climate over recent years and farmers' adaptation strategy in terms of cropping in agricultural production. Design/methodology/approach This study uses Simpson's diversity index (SDI) to measure the degree of crop diversity planted by farmers and evaluate the influence of climate change on farmers' cropping strategy using the fixed-effect model. Further, the authors estimate the impact of farmers' cropping strategy on their economic performances in two aspects including yields and technical efficiency of crops. Findings The empirical results show that the overall climate appears a warming trend. Different from farmers in some other countries, Chinese farmers tend to adopt a more specialised cropping strategy which can significantly improve the technical efficiency and yields of crops in agriculture. In addition, as a moderating role, the specialised cropping can help farmers to alleviate the negative impact of climate change on technical efficiency of their crops. Originality/value First, previous studies showed that the changing climate influenced farmers' adaptation strategies, while most studies focussed on multiple adaptation strategies from the farm-level perspective rather than cropping strategy from the nation-level perspective. Second, the present study investigates how the cropping strategy affects the economic performance (in terms of the technical efficiency and crop yields) of agricultural production. Third, the stochastic frontier analysis method is used to estimate the technical efficiency. Fourth, this study explores the moderating effect between farmers' cropping strategy and technical efficiency by introducing an interaction item of SDI and accumulated temperature.

Program kampung iklim (Proklim) was launched by the Government to increase the implementation of the climate change adaptation strategy. The decision to adopt an adaptation strategy is influenced by farmers’ perceptions of climate change. This study aims to determine the level and compare the awareness of the climate change and perceptions of the climate change risks, among farmers from the Proklim and non-Proklim locations. The study was conducted in 3 sub-districts that have Proklim location, in Sleman Regency. By using the simple random sampling method, a total of 112 farmers were selected from the Proklim and non-Proklim locations in the same proportion. The results showed that the Proklim and non-Proklim locations were dominated by farmers with an awareness of climate change and perceptions of climate change risks at a moderate level. Other findings showed that farmers from the Proklim location had a higher awareness of climate change compared with non-Proklim farmers, with a difference of awareness of 6.44%. Perceptions of climate change risk among farmers from the two locations didn’t show significant differences.

Mitigate Climate Change

Changing climate is a serious environmental problem affecting agricultural productivity at global level. It is important to study the perceptions of farmers’ towards changing climate and its impact on agriculture as it is one of the strong interpreters of changing farmers’ behaviour to mitigate climate change and adopt adequate and appropriate measures to ensure agricultural production. For the construction of the scale to measure the farmers’ perception, summating rating method suggested by Likart (1932) was followed. Based on review of literature 79 statements were enlisted initially and 21 statements were finalized for the final construction of the scale. The reliability and validity of the scale was calculated to find out the precision and consistency of the results. This scale will be helpful for interested policy makers, academicians and researchers who willing to study the farmers’ perceptions about climate change and its impact on agriculture.

The paper mainly analyses the environmental threats focusing on climate change to human security in Nepal. Major aspects of human security are interlinked and interconnected in our context. Among them, human security offers much to the vibrant field of environmental security in Nepal. Environmental threats are linked to the overall impact on human survival, well-being, and productivity. A great deal of human security is tied to peoples’ access to natural resources and vulnerabilities to environmental change. The major environmental threats in our context is the climate change which have widespread implications for Nepal, causing impacts to water availability, agricultural production, forestry, among many other detrimental effects. The critical threat of environmental security needs to be taken into serious consideration to save our succeeding generation. This article primarily interpreted the government action towards emerging environmental threat based on realist approach. For the study of theme of this article, descriptive and analytical research has been used to draw present major environmental threats in Nepal. With consideration to factors, this article attempted to identify the major environmentally vulnerable areas that are likely to hamper the overall status of human security in Nepal. This paper also tried to suggest the measures to enhance the environmental security considering prospects and policy focusing on Nepalese diverse aspects.
