description Farmers particularly smallholder farmers in India are increasingly getting exposed to adverse impacts of climate change and extreme weather events. The increased vulnerability to different abiotic (weather) and biotic risks (pests, diseases, nutrient disorders, weeds etc.) and accompanying productivity and agricultural income losses discourage farming households from investing in both productivity enhancing innovations as well as human capital development. The new technological advancements in digital and computing fields provide new opportunities to improve agricultural risk assessment, develop management strategies and use it to reduce the negative effects of climate change through innovative tools.
