Climate-adaptive income generation strategies 

This program highlighted the agricultural challenges posed by climate change, addressing the impact of rising sea levels and disrupted weather patterns on farming—resulting in soil degradation and crop damage. A promising solution was showcased: sack farming. Farmers, guided by Adarsh Chashi Agro Care Association, have successfully embraced this method, cultivating various vegetables. Sack farming offers self-reliance, safe produce, and economic benefits, particularly during heavy rains. Leaders like Jamal Uddin underscored the advantages, emphasizing the assurance of safe, chemical-free food and increased profits for farmers. The report also emphasized the necessity for additional training sessions to further empower farmers. Eshita and Sumia concluded by stressing the importance of understanding climate-specific crops and guidelines for successful income generation despite climate challenges.
