Decadal Changes in Farming Practices in Arunachal SEPLS

Trend Analysis in Changing Patterns in Farming Practices in Sangti Valley and Chugh Valley SEPLs in Arunachal of North Eastern India shows that with the changing weather regimes the farming practices shifted drastically from dry highland rice to wet valley rice. However, it was more in Sangti, probably because of the unban exposure and availability of HYV seeds of wet rice, whereas it cam late in Chugh owing to geographical remoteness and remained restricted to areas close to the river, The political ecology of the area has also spelt immense impact on these changing trends.
