ABSTRACT
Farming is not only affected by global warming, but it also contributes around 24% of greenhouse gas emissions. Another sobering truth is that the compositions of greenhouse gases have risen dramatically since the industrial revolution. Some modifications occurred as a result of human activity and/ or overuse of natural resources. The type and extent of climatic change’s effect(s) or danger differ depending on where you live. On the other hand, agriculture is itself affected by other aspects of society, including its cultural and economic values. Ages of humanity have built strong ties with the ecosystem, identifying natural patterns and inventing techniques to access nature’s advantages before the advent of “Western Science,” and even before science had a name. Forestry, farming, and aquaculture practices evolved over time as a result of trial and error in determining the optimum ways to practice agriculture in order to extract resources for survival, with some methods being more sustained than others.
Bihar is one of the Indo-Gangetic Plain states that have been negatively affected by climate change due to modest and distributed land holdings, i.e., around 16.1 million farm assets, with 91% being negligible. As a result, there is an urgent need to create location-specific sustainable agriculture methods to mitigate the effects of climate change.
