Impact of rice-based cropping sequence at adopted village under NICRA-TDC in Nalbari district of Assam

The present study examines the economic performance of rice-based cropping sequences in a NICRA (National Innovations on Climate Resilient Agriculture) adopted village of Nalbari district, Assam. Climate variability and change have increasingly disrupted traditional agricultural practices in the region, posing serious challenges to crop productivity, food security, and farm livelihoods. To address these challenges, NICRA promotes climate-resilient agricultural interventions, including improved cropping sequences tailored to local agro-climatic conditions. This study assesses the economic viability and sustainability of selected rice-based cropping systems under changing climatic conditions, with the objective of identifying profitable and resilient cropping sequences that can enhance farm income and contribute to long-term agricultural sustainability.
