📄 Abstract
This paper investigates climate-resilient farming in flood-prone Kainakary, focusing on paddy cultivation. Flood-induced disruptions have impacted property, livelihoods, and agriculture. The study identifies challenges faced by farmers and proposes actionable recommendations. Survey data from Kainakary highlights that floods affected 79% of residents, damaging property and belongings. Moreover, 93% experienced livelihood setbacks, particularly paddy farmers facing crop loss, infrastructure damage, seed shortages, and financial instability. To enhance climate resilience, the paper suggests implementing comprehensive crop insurance, reliable crop advisories, climate-tolerant seeds, improved infrastructure, seed banks, storage, and early warning systems.
