2 Climatic Variations: Farming Systems and Livelihoods in the High Barind Tract and Coastal areas of Bangladesh M. B. Islam, M. Y. Ali, M. Amin and Sk. M. Zaman Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Gazipur, Bangladesh
3 Objective To investigate the effect of climatic variations on the farming systems and livelihoods of the people
4 Methodology Study areas: High Barind Tract, Rajshahi and Coastal belt of six locations: Bagerhat, Dacope of Khulna, Noakhali sadar, Subarnochar of Noakhali, Dumki and Kalapara of Patuakhali
5 Primary information was collected through predesigned and pre-tested questionnaire and collected data were verified through FGD Secondary information was also collected from SRDI and Barind Multipurpose Development Authority (BMDA) reports Experimental data were incorporated in this study from different reports of BARI Meteorological information/data were collected from Bangladesh Meteorological Department, Dhaka

12 Pictorial views of drought in High Barind Tract Extent of Drought
13 In 1985, cropping intensity of HBT was 117% (BMDA, 2006) At present, cropping intensity of this area is 216% (BMDA, 2006)
14 Crops and cropping patterns with varieties in High Barind Tract in 1985 and Rainfed: F-F- Rainfed: Chickpea + Linseed- Cropping pattern 2007 Rainfed: F-F- Irrigated: Wheat- T.Aus-/ Tomato-T.Aus Boro- Rainfed: Chickpea (L/HYV) (L/HYV) Chickpea (L) Linseed (L) (L/HYV) - - Crops/variety (L/HYV) Wheat (HYV) Tomato T.Aus 2007 Boro T. Aman (HYV) Chickpea (HYV) (HYV) Remarks With the development of irrigation systems the cropping patterns have been changed. Improved management practices with modern crop varieties increased the yields of different crops.
15 Technologies to mitigate drought situation of HBT Experimental results revealed that in many years drought prevailed during flowering stage of rice. As a result 11-34% yield loss occurred for local and 43-50% for modern rice varieties. Supplementary irrigation by harvesting run off water in a mini pond (10m x 10m x 3m) can save the yield loss of one hectare of land (Annual Progress Report, OFRD, BARI, 1991).
16 Seed priming of chickpea increased the seed yield of 20-25% over nonpriming under moisture stress situation of HBT
17 Chickpea, barley, sesame, linseed, gimakalmi, stem amaranth, coriander and mungbean were found promising for drought situation Besides these, improved crop management practices viz., mulching and minimum tillage were also found to mitigate the challenges of drought
18 Livelihood of the farmers has improved through intervention of modern agricultural technologies, utilization of homestead areas, plantation of fruit trees along with development of better communication
19 Non-saline lands are becoming saline under four circumstances; a) when they flooded by saline water during stormsurge or by breaking of a coastal embankment b) when drought occurs in pre-monsoon season, c) when drought occurs in post-monsoon season d) if a tube-well (or other irrigation source) starts to deliver saline water during a crop growing period (Brammer, 1999)

24 Cropping intensity as well as yields of crops have increased due to use of HYVs and modern production technologies which helped for improving the livelihood of farmers of coastal belt Increased salinity has a profound negative effect on the livestock health due to decrease of fodder production because of salinity, shrimp gher, long inundation, modern rice cultivation and polluted water. The fisheries sector in the southern coastal region are very likely to face significantly yield reduction in future due to climate change Enhanced salinity and climatic hazards like SIDR have ill effect on the health of human along with increased disease incidence and sudden death
25
26 In Khulna region (secondary salinity), crop lands are converted to shrimp Gher by the rich man thus rendering the non-saline crop land to saline as a result lands are becoming unsuitable for rice or other crop cultivation With the intrusion of strong saline water, production of different crops, fruit trees, are seriously affected as a result livelihood and economy of farmers of those area are seriously hampered Moreover, Global Circulation Model results revealed that due to rise of temperature, drought and salinity/ cyclone/storm surge in Bangladesh could increase in an alarming rate in the near future
27 Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute has already carried out some study on screening of crops/variety for saline areas Tolerance of rabi field crops to salinity is approximately as follows: Sweet potato > cowpea > groundnut > millets > soybean > triticale > mungbean > sesame > barley > wheat > mustard For vegetables, spices and fruits the ranking would look like this: Batishak > chilli > kangkong > garlic > indian spinach > okra > water melon > red amaranth Besides these, improved crop management practices viz. raised bed with mulch, mulching, zero tillage, sorjan method etc. were also found to mitigate the challenges of salinity and rise of temperature
28 Following points may be considered for impact assessment on the basis of climate change scenarios Climate influence Crop production Population distribution Vegetation Soil, water and animal resources Temperature, rainfall and natural hazards like cyclone, flooding, drought, salinity changes and erosion Human health Industry, energy, infrastructure and communication Urbanization Food demand and supply
29 Impact on agriculture Agricultural crops are highly vulnerable to climate events Occurrence of unprecedented floods Occurrence of flash floods Occurrence of droughts (kharif I and later part of kharif II and rabi) Emissions of nitrous oxide, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides from agril. residues Excessive emission of methane gas has been contributing to the global warming The residual effects of climate changes have been destroying the content of organic matter in the soil and also the protein sources
30 Following adaptation measures may be taken: Improved irrigation efficiency Crop diversification (introduction of salt and drought tolerant variety for coastal and Barind area) Conjunctive use of surface and ground water irrigation Change in fertilization techniques (deep placement of fertilizer, hole system etc.) Coastal green belt forestry through GO-NGOs collaboration Agro-forestry development Homestead vegetable and agroforestry development Community forest development through GO-NGOs partnership
31 Institutional adaptation Improved of agricultural extension services and proper linkage with farmers for adoption of new technologies for those area Enhance training program and dissemination activities Research and development of salinity and drought tolerant crops and high yielding varieties Re-excavation of ponds/cannel in Barind area Change practices (cultural and other management practices such as tillage, sorjan, relay, ICM/IPM/IPNS concept) Expanded access to credit Guidelines to incorporate climate change in future planning Development of reserved /protected areas in different agroecological zones (coastal areas) Co-operative social forestry support services with the involvement of vulnerable women and men
