dc.description.abstractThe present study was conducted in the year 2016-2017 in S. Raghuttahalli and D. Nagarajahosahalli of Chintamani taluk, Chikkaballapura district. A sample of 80 farmers from S. Raghuttahalli, a NICRA village as beneficiaries and 40 farmers as nonbeneficiaries from D.Nagarajahosahalli, a non-NICRA village were selected randomly. Thus, making a total sample size of 120. The overall mean impact index of beneficiaries was 76.35 as compared to non-beneficiaries, who got 61.25 which is significant. In respect of overall impact, nearly half of the (47.50 %) of the non-beneficiary farmers belonged to the low overall impact category, whereas, 42.50 per cent of beneficiary farmers comes under the high overall impact category. With respect to extent of adoption of climate resilient practices shows that 47.50 per cent of the non-beneficiary farmers belonged to the low adoption category, whereas, significant per cent (36.25 %) of the beneficiaries belonged to the high adoption category. Significant percentage of beneficiary farmers have adopted the climate resilient practices like drip irrigation (80.00 %), use of early maturing and drought tolerant high yielding varieties like ML-365, MR-6 (52.50 %), earthing up in redgram (57.50 %), crop diversification (72.50 %) and establishment of fodder bank (31.25 %) compared to non-beneficiaries. Uneven rainfall, financial constraints, lack of resources and lack of technical guidance were the major constraints in adoption of climate resilient practices.en_US
