CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION STRATEGIES AMONG SMALL-SCALE FARMERS IN ARAKAN
socio-economic profile, small-scale farmers, climate change risks, adaptation strategies
The effects of climate change are growing more pronounced and increasingly threaten the well-being of society, regardless of geographic location. However, the burdens of climate change are not equally distributed. Although there are various arguments on the methods of climate change assessment, this study is necessary to determine the farmer’s challenges related to climate change in agriculture and their adaptation strategies in response to climate change-related problems. The study employed a quantitative descriptive research design with 32 samples of small-scale farmers. Results revealed that farmers perceived drought, pest infestation, and the prevalence of plant diseases, as well as heavy rainfall and typhoons, as climate change-related risks to agriculture. They further perceived that the government's seed distribution program is a very applicable adaptive strategy to mitigate the effects of climate change in their context.
