Out of an estimated 143 million hectares of cultivated area in India about 24 per cent is under Dryland agriculture. Rainfed agriculture occupies a prominent place in Indian economy and rural livelihoods. To overcome the drought community farmers have to be ready to adopt climate resilient agriculture technologies. Climate readiness is “the extent to which a respondent is ready to face the effects of climate change especially drought. Keeping this in view, an attempt has been made to assess the climate readiness level of the drought prone area farmers of NICRA adopted villages and non-adopted villages of Singanamala mandal of Anantapur district. The study revealed that majority of NICRA adopted village farmers had high climate readiness, whereas in non NICRA village farmers had medium climate readiness.
