Climate Change in India: How Monsoons and Agriculture Are Being Disrupted

Vizzve Admin

India’s economy is deeply rooted in its soil—and its climate. But the growing signs of climate change are now disturbing monsoon patterns, damaging crops, and shaking the financial foundation of rural India.

It’s not just rising temperatures—it’s rising risks.

Monsoons in Crisis: What’s Changing?

Monsoons supply nearly 70% of India’s annual rainfall—critical for both drinking water and farming. But over the last decade:

📉 Delayed or erratic onset of monsoons in many regions

⛈️ Sudden extreme rainfall causing floods, not irrigation

🌵 Longer dry spells between rainfall events

❄️ Warming in the Himalayas disturbing snow-fed rivers

The once predictable Indian monsoon has become unreliable and chaotic, hurting millions of small farmers.

How Agriculture Is Being Affected

 1. Reduced Crop Yields

Climate-sensitive crops like wheat, rice, pulses, and sugarcane are seeing lower productivity due to uneven rainfall and rising heat.

 2. Livestock Health Decline

Heat stress reduces milk production and increases disease outbreaks in cattle.

 3. Increased Cost of Cultivation

Farmers now spend more on irrigation, pesticides, and repeated sowing due to failed rains.

 4. Shift in Crop Patterns

Regions traditionally known for certain crops are being forced to switch—creating market instability.

 5. Higher Farmer Debt and Distress

Crop failures = loan defaults = deepening rural debt cycles. This is where Vizzve Finance steps in.
