Multistage purposive and stratified sampling technique was used for the sample selection. Information from 360 respondents was got using Rapid Rural Appraisal (RRA), Focus Group Discussions (FGD), and actual survey with questionnaires. Results showed that the rice farmers were aware of weather changes with grave effects on their rice farms. They reported changes in rainfall regime, intense sunshine, high temperature etc. Of special interest among the adaptation strategies by farmers are the use of inorganic fertilizers, improved rice varieties, cultivation of early maturing varieties, and proper preservation of rice seeds. This study recommends urgent measures to improve resilience of smallholder farmers in rural communities to enable them better adapt to climate-change.

Honey collected from nature by the ethnic communities is an important source of nutrition and also contribute to their income generation. Honey collection from the wild is especially done by the indigenous tribe and forest dwellers. The Pnar community living in Barak Valley, South Assam is also engaged in the collection of honey from the forest, especially during the spring season. The process starts with the gathering of information, followed by the preparation for the activity and subsequently extraction of honey from the bee hive. The technique used by the Pnar community is a challenging one as it involves harvesting of honey from lofty trees in forest with traditionally made gears like bamboo basket, smoke torch and a one bamboo ladder. The indigenous ways involves lining the bamboo basket with leaves for the collection of honey, using smoke to frighten the bee and storage of honey in the bamboo pipes. The present study exhibits the rich traditional knowledge that has paved the way for a sustainable livelihood since long and at the same time provides income generation opportunity for the community.

This study was conducted to determine optimum planting dates of maize genotypes in 2013/14 at Rampur, Chitwan, Nepal. Four genotypes namely RML-4/RML-17, RML-32/RML-17, ACROSS-9944/ACROSS-9942 and S99TLYQ-B were planted at every week from April to March. The experiments were laid out in randomized complete block design with four replications . The result of experiment showed that the highest production (5565 kg/ha) was obtained in August followed by February (5266 kg/ha), June (4475 kg/ha) and July (4255 kg/ha) respectively. The lowest yield (2572 kg/ha) was obtained in the month of November and December planting (3019 kg/ha). The highest grain yield was obtained in RML-4/RML-17 (7392 kg/ha) and RML-32/RML17 (6606 kg/ha), ACROSS- 9944/ACROSS-9942 (5004 kg/ha) during August planting and higher yield of QPM variety S99TLYQ-B was obtained in the month February planting. Winter maize has higher production potential than the rainy season maize. Based on this experiment RML-4/RML-17, RML-32/RML17 and ACROSS- 9944/ACROSS-9942 should be planting in August (winter season) and S99TLYQ-B in February (spring season) for higher grain yield production.
