Abstract

The consequences of climate change are posing new challenges to the farming community in all possible forms. The study area, Ananthapuramu district is one of the five vulnerable districts in Andhra Pradesh state with the least average annual rainfall. Considering the rainfall as the criterion, four blocks were chosen for the study with the least average annual rainfall. Two villages from each block were selected based on the highest number of farmers. The sample size was 161 chosen by the Multi-Stage proportionate Random Sampling method. First-hand information was collected from the farmers with the help of a well-structured and pre-tested interview schedule. The findings exposed the medium or moderate behavior of the respondents towards the selected variables and can be enhanced to higher levels by opting for efficiency measures.
