In India, a majority of farmers are marginal and small, less educated and possess low adaptive capabilities to climate change, perhaps because of credit and other constraints. So, one cannot expect autonomous adaptation to climate change. Even if it was possible, it would not be sufficient to offset losses from climate change. To deal with this, adaptation to climate change is paramount, alongside a fast mitigation response. Another solution is to have a planned or policy-driven adaptation, which would require the government to come up with policy recommendations. Perception is a necessary prerequisite for adaptation. Whether farmers are adapting agricultural practices to climate change depends on whether they perceive it or not. However, this is not always enough for adaptation. It is important how a farmer perceives the risks associated with climate change.Which one of the following statements best reflects the most logical and rational message conveyed by the author of the passage?(a) Adaptation to climate change and mitigation response are basically the responsibilities of the government.(b) Climate change causes a change in government policies regarding land use patterns in the country.(c) Risk perceptions of farmers are important for motivating them for taking adaptation decisions.(d) Since mitigation is not possible, governments should come up with policies for quick response to climate change.
