Abstract

The frequencies of natural calamities such as drought, flood, and cyclones are projected for the next years. These are expected to have adverse effects on the livelihood of the most vulnerable group of the population in the Kendujhar district of Odisha (marginal and small farmers, and forest dwellers). To delineate the trend of the most important weather factors (Rainfall, Temperature, Relative humidity), the study used non-parametric tests like the Mann-Kendall test and Sen’s Slop estimator, which was used to accomplish the objectives of this study. The Agricultural Statistics Department and the Special Relief Commissioner of Odisha are reliable sources of climatic data. The method of data analysis is outlined with the description of the quantitative outcomes using the MAKESENS version 1.0 developed by the Finnish Meteorological Institute in Finland. The study reveals that the average rainfall maximum temperature and relative humidity have changed last three decades significantly. The rainfall declined inconsistently in June (Z=-1.86, Sen’s slope= -2.96), while the maximum temperature had a significant increase of 0.05 ℃. The study concludes that there is a need for more research on the link between the agricultural farmer’s behaviour of cropping time and pattern with the trend of three indicators which has been studied.
