The Indian government can address the impact of climate change on poorer farmers by implementing measures suggested in the FAO report. These may include:
  • Implementing climate-resilient agricultural practices
  • Providing training and support for sustainable farming techniques
  • Improving access to weather information and early warning systems
  • Developing drought and flood-resistant crop varieties
  • Establishing a crop insurance scheme for smallholder farmers
  • Investing in infrastructure for better water management
