Coastal farmers follow different enterprise combinations according to the
resources available to them. A study conducted in the coastal districts of Tamil
Nadu revealed that the major farming systems practised by the farmers were: crop +
dairy, crop + dairy + poultry, crop + dairy + poultry + fisheries, crop + dairy +
poultry + sheep/goats, crop + dairy + poultry + horticulture, and crop + dairy +
poultry + sheep/goats + horticulture. Livestock holdings, landholding, marketing
behaviour, the perception of integrated farming systems and communication
behaviour were the important contributing factors to sustainable livelihoods in the
farming systems found. Broad-based extension systems would be the ideal extension
approach to promote integrated farming systems for developing sustainable
livelihoods. Appropriate institutional and infrastructure support could also
facilitate the adoption of profitable and sustainable farming systems in the coastal
region
