In the context of global food security, ensuring sustainable
agricultural production is a major concern. It's a vital issue in
those countries like Bangladesh, where agriculture acts as a
prevailing sector for national economy. Around 80% of the total
population living in the rural areas of Bangladesh, are engaged in
different agricultural activities for the sake of their livelihood.
But in the current era, this sector is passing through some
uncertainties due to the concurrent climate change. It has been
well recognized that, due to climate change, Khulna district, one
of the largest south west coastal regions of Bangladesh would be
the worst victimized cities over the whole world. Besides
fisheries, agriculture is the primary occupation in this coastal
area. For reduction of fish production, people who were engaged
with fisheries are now changing their livelihood to agriculture. At
the micro scale, local farmers are experiencing the losses due to
the infrequent abnormal changes of climatic parameters specially
the temperature and precipitation. Through this study, an attempt
was taken to explore the local evidence of climatic variability as
well as its impact on crop production.
