Tribal Adaptation to Climate Change among the Hill Dwellers of Himachal Pradesh
Dr. Laxmi Rawat
Abstract
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.
