Paper Summary

Climate change is a big problem for Indian farmers. They are facing floods, droughts, and cyclones more often. This affects their crops and income. To deal with this, farmers are trying to adapt. A study looked at what farmers know about climate change and how they are changing their farming practices. They found that farmers are aware of climate change and are making changes based on their local conditions and money. This information can help make better policies to help farmers deal with climate change.
