IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON PRODUCTION OF MAJOR AGRICULTURAL CROPS IN TRIPURA: AN OVERVIEW

Abstract

Current article presents a meticulous examination of the climate change dynamics affecting agricultural productivity in the state of Tripura, India. Focusing on pivotal crops including rice, pulses, maize, sesamum, and groundnut, the study employs a rigorous synthesis of existing literature, comprehensive data analysis, and insightful case studies. By scrutinizing the intricate interplay between climate shifts and agricultural practices, this review underscores the profound impact of evolving environmental conditions on crop yield. Moreover, it delineates the multifaceted challenges encountered by farmers and elucidates the adaptive strategies devised to mitigate these challenges. Rooted in agricultural economics principles, this analysis not only underscores the urgent need for sustainable agricultural practices but also contributes valuable insights to the scientific discourse on climate change adaptation in agricultural economies.
