Because of their unique socio-economic, cultural, and ecological contexts, farmers may be seen as agents of change within the human component of agricultural adaptation. Farmers' perspectives on climate change are examined through the lens of their prior exposure to and comfort with risk and uncertainty. Farmers hone their adaptability and use appropriate local adaptation measures as a result. How farmers see the short-term and long-term risks associated with climate change affects the tactics they use to adapt. Micro-level connections between agents, the institutions wherein they participate, and the supply line upon which they rely are all part of the adaptation process. It is, therefore, crucial to comprehend how farmers participate in the decision-making process, as well as the major elements that generate and increase adaptation responses.
