Economic Impacts of Climate Change on Indian Farmers and Rural Livelihoods

Author(s) K.NAGENDIRAN, R.SATHYA

Abstract This study focuses on the economic impacts of climate change on Indian farmers and rural livelihoods, examining how shifts in weather patterns, such as erratic rainfall, rising temperatures, and extreme weather events, affect agricultural productivity and income. It explores the challenges faced by smallholder farmers, particularly in terms of crop failures, increased production costs, and market volatility, and how these factors contribute to broader socio-economic issues like rural poverty and migration. Climate change poses significant economic challenges to Indian farmers and rural livelihoods, as agriculture in India is highly vulnerable to changing weather patterns, such as erratic rainfall, rising temperatures, and increased frequency of extreme events like droughts and floods. These shifts have led to reduced crop productivity, income losses, price volatility, and rising production costs, particularly for smallholder farmers.
Rural communities, which depend heavily on agriculture, face worsening poverty and increasing migration to urban areas in search of better opportunities. In addition, health impacts from climate-induced events exacerbate the vulnerability of rural populations. To address these challenges, climate-smart agricultural practices, improved access to financial support, better water management, and technological innovations are crucial. Strengthening these measures can help build resilience and secure the future of Indian agriculture, ensuring the sustainability of rural livelihoods in the face of climate change.
