This research focuses on how climate-induced aridity impacts the efficiency of rice production in Northeast India, particularly under future scenarios.
Analyzed aridity variation from 1981 to 2020 using Oury’s Index
Utilized Stochastic Frontier Analysis to assess rice production efficiency
Projected future production from 2021 to 2090 using Regional Climate Models under RCP scenarios
Examined regional disparities in technical efficiency scores among districts
Significant decline in soil moisture conditions was noted with a slope of −0.25
Upper Assam showed a Technical Efficiency score of 0.996, outperforming Lower Assam's 0.78
Land area had the highest output elasticity, followed by capital and technology
Adaptive strategies improved efficiency coefficients by 0.017
Sonitpur ranked as the top-performing district, while Kamrup Metro ranked lowest due to urbanization impacts
