Introduction
• About 3.5 billion peoples lives on rice• About 50% fresh water is used for rice
production• Irrigated area is about 56%.
– 70% from GW & – 30% from SW
• Due to climate change: Temp increasing & sea level rising
• Frequency & magnitude of climatic events- flood, drought, storm, cyclone increasing
• Need more food from reduced land area
NCA & population growth by 2025 in Bangladesh
Coastal district: 19 (Upazila 147) 48 upazilas in 12 districts- exposed coast 99 upazilas- interior coast
Legend
0 cm SLR (Area : 9239 sq km)
88 cm SLR (Area :14468 sq km)
32 cm SLR (Area :10612 sq km)
Projected salinity intrusion due to sea level rise
Main Problem
• Increasing water & soil salinity
• Inland saline water intrusion
• Cyclone (AYLA, SIDR, RESMY, MOHASEN, storm & tidal surge
• Increasing temperature
• Short winter
• To assess the climate change impacts, analyze the implications for regional hydrology and vulnerability of rice crop production and
• To adopt sustainable crop production technology for saline prone areas of Bangladesh
Objectives
Study sites: Saline prone Barisal region
Methodology
Methodology
• Project sites: information of stakeholders, reports & literatures
• Local adaptation strategies- interview with farmers, field visits & literature search
• Climate change scenarios development:
(i) downscaling of available data by using climate model,
(ii) water availability scenarios through hydrological modeling (SWAT Model)
(iii) water requirement (net irrigation requirement) scenario using DRAS model,
(iv) crop production scenarios (productions/yield losses)
• Field demonstrations of different technologies
- Stress tolerant variety
- Water and Fertilizer management
- Crop establishment method, etc

Findings
Present and future status of climate
Temperature• Based on 30 years (1983-2012)
– Maximum annual avg. temp. = 32.7 oC– Minimum annual avg. temp. = 13.7 oC– Recorded • Maximum temp. = 38.1 oC• Minimum temp. = 8.5 oC
• Compared to 1990-2010 period• Temp. will be increased in 2100 by
– 1.0-3.0 oC in A1B scenario– 0.6-2.5 oC in A2 scenario– But based on IPCC (2013) • Minimum temp. will be increased by 1.8 oC• Maximum temp. will be increased by 3.4 oC
Rainfall
• Average annual rainfall = 1805-2039 mm
• Only 16-17% in winter season
• Based on A1B scenario 3% rainfall will be increased in 2011-2040, but 3% rainfall will be decreased in 2041-2100
• Based on A2 scenario 9-11% rainfall will be decreased in 2041-2070, but 3% will be increased in 2071-2100
• There was no concluding remarks for increasing and decreasing of rainfall
• Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Transient (GFDL-TR) model predicted increased RF in Mar-Nov during 2050 and 2070, but Hadly center predicted decreased RF during same period
• At per RegCM3, dry period rainfall (Dec.-Feb) may increase up to 107% by 2050. If it really happens, it might hamper winter crops establishment, especially non-rice crops in optimum time. Pre-monsoon rainfall might decrease by 67% indicating increased supplemental irrigation of Kharif-I crops

Water Availability by SWAT Model• Water availability will be reduced for all season: But it
will be reduced by 12-30% in Aus/Khatif-I (pre-monsoon) season
• Water availability will be slightly increased in Aman (monsoon) season

The way for climatic adaptation• Low water demanding crop cultivation• Salt and heat tolerant variety cultivation
based on land suitability• Increasing water storage capacity by re-
excavation of canal (khal), pond etc. and cultivation of rice and non-rice crops by using this water
• Increasing capacity to combat the climatic adverse effect

Rice crop damaged by cyclone MOHASEN in Patharghata
BRRI dhan47 could not survivein high salinity (> 10 dS/m)
Can we overcome it?
All farmers are not interested for rice cultivation
Crop damaged by salinity
BRRI dhan47
Salinity effect may be reduced by water management, but it increase irrigation cost
Capacity building: Farmer’s training/Field days
Crop variety adaptation
Adoption of different T.Aman varieties during 2013
Adoption of different Rabi/Boro varieties during 2013
Recommendations
• Concerted efforts of all regional research & extension organizations are needed for adaptation activities,
• Revival of drainage systems,• Measurement of trapped water salinity before use for
irrigation,• Necessary steps to develop water delivery system to
cultivate crops far away from fresh water sources.
