HARNESSING INDIGENOUS TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE FOR SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE IN ASSAM: A PATHWAY TO CLIMATE RESILIENCE

2025 · PLANT ARCHIVES

Summary. Farmers in Assam use indigenous technical knowledge—including crop diversification, agroforestry, and traditional weather forecasting—to adapt to climate variability, manage water efficiently, and maintain soil fertility. The paper documents thirty indigenous practices for cereal and vegetable crops and pest control, arguing that systematically integrating these methods with modern science creates climate-resilient, sustainable farming that improves food security and ecological balance.
