Agricultural risk and resilience

The East Region for the present study covers four states, viz. Bihar, Odisha, Chhattisgarh and West Bengal, and the districts selected from these States were Jehanabad, Bhadrak, Raipur and Bankura, respectively. As stated in the methodology chapter, the present study is based on (i) primary data: farm survey among 100 farmers from Bihar, 500 farmers from Odisha, 70 farmers from Chhattisgarh and 151 farmers from West Bengal and (ii) secondary data: time series data (1982–2010) on productivity (yield) of rice and climate variables from the three districts belonging to Bihar, Odisha and West Bengal (since Chhattisgarh is a newly formed State, it was excluded).
