India faces a significant challenge of balancing its rapid economic growth with an urgent need to address the issue of climate change. India's economy is majorly associate to its natural resource, with climate-sensitive sectors like agriculture playing a crucial role. Climate change impacts on India's natural resources could be far-reaching, disrupting the distribution and quality of these assets and adversely affecting people's livelihoods. India's diverse agricultural landscape, comprising 15 Agro-climatic zones, supports various seasons, crops, and farming systems. For many Indians, agriculture is the primary source of livelihood, making it highly vulnerable to climate change. The sector's sensitivity to climate variability means any climate change will significantly impact Indian agriculture directly and indirectly.Central government has taken steps to support farmers, providing facilities like a dedicated television channel and call centres to educate and inform them about weather conditions, soil health, and the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers. The Ministry of Agriculture and the National Action Plan for Climate Change play pivotal role in agricultural governance, ensuring gradual but steady growth in agricultural production. Sustainable agriculture holds great potential for meeting food security requirements while improving farmers' livelihoods by enhancing their net incomes and resource productivity. This paper highlights the potential for agricultural growth and adaptation to climate change and the process of agricultural governance in India.
