Abstract
Climate change has emerged as a major threat to sustaining livelihoods. There is ample evidence that the occurrence and intensity of drought has increased over the years. The atmospheric temperature is rising significantly at an average rate of 0.01-0.06°C/year in the Indian semi-arid tropics (SAT). In India, the annual mean surface air temperature is projected to rise by 1.7°C to 2.0°C by 2030 (INCCA 2010).
