Dependency on weather in agricultural operations is the main limitation of the farmers
of the North Eastern region. Though importance is given on rain water harvesting and
recycling through various schemes and programs of central and state Govts., those are having
limited performances and crops are still subjected to mid-season vagaries of nature. Besides,
the inherent resource poorness of the farmers have made them shy to stay away from improved
agricultural technologies owing to dependency on external market for the inputs, which are
generally costly and high maintenance costs. The region is already a recognized very sensitive
ecosystem and any imbalance in the natural and production processes is likely to hamper
the normal livelihood and food security.
Under such circumstances and governed by the principles of adaptation to natural
changes and mitigation of the harmful cause and effects of rapid global climate change, the
Govt. of India introduced a new research scheme, called National Initiative on Climate
Resilient Agriculture (NICRA) to safe guard the interest of the common farming community.
The ICAR RC NEH Region is also an important partner of this national flagship program on
climate change. Since 2010-11 under the theme area of basic and strategic research in natural
resource management, crop improvement, livestock and fishes new state of the art
technologies have been tested in the institute and ones proven suitable they have been released
systematically for adoption by the farmers. The main scope and objective of researches
carried out under the aegis of NICRA are to enhance the potential of the farmers for adaptation
and mitigation of the adverse affects of climate change.
While achieving the ultimate goal to reach to the farmers, there is a constant need to
up date the coworkers involved in the same line about the new technologies/interventions
and about the state of the art infrastructures raised for research purposes. This serves the
purpose of confidence building among them and helps in coming out with new innovative
ideas of practical importance. The climate change challenges can be tackled only with the
active participation of different stakeholders of the society. That invites the necessity to
compile important perspectives on the regional developments in climate change research
and policies and thus can help in the pooling of regional resources to address the threats and
challenges.
Keeping in view of the above facts this book has been brought out to bring familiarity
with state of the art research technologies/interventions/innovations and dissemination of
the recent scientific advances in the field of soil, plant and water management to enhance
adaptation and mitigation potential of farmers of North Eastern Hill Region in the backdrop
of climate change.
