• Drought in India has resulted in tens of millions of deaths over the course of the 18 th, 19 th, and 20 th centuries. • Telangana agriculture is heavily dependent on the climate of India: a favorable southwest summer monsoon is critical in securing water for irrigations and rain fed crops; • In 67% of agriculture area in India is rain-fed (63% in Telangana), hence failure of the monsoons result in below-average crop yields.

Vulnerability : • IPCC defines vulnerability (V) as the composite index of exposure (E), sensitivity (S) and adaptive index (AC). • Exposure (E): “the nature and degree to which a system Exposure is exposed to significant climatic variation” (IPCC, 2001); Vulnerabil ity • Sensitivity (S): “degree to which a system is affected, either adversely or beneficially, by climate variability or change” (IPCC, 2007); and • Adaptive Capacity (AC): “the ability (or potential) of a system to adjust successfully to climate change” (IPCC, 2007). Sensitivity Adaptive Capacity
IPCC AR 5 (2014): • IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (AR 5) relies on the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP 5), an Time Periods international effort among the climate modeling community to coordinate climate change experiments. 2050 (average for 20412060) 2070 (average for 20612080) RCP Peak of GHG emission (measured in CO 2 equivalents) concentrations reaching 421 ppm (RCP 2. 6), 538 ppm 2. 6 2010 -2020, then decline (RCP 4. 5), 670 ppm (RCP 6. 0), and 936 ppm (RCP 8. 5) by the 4. 5 Peak around 2040, then decline 6. 0 Peak around 2080, then decline 8. 5 Continue to rise throughout the 21 st century • Most of the CMIP 5 and Earth System Model (ESM) simulations for AR 5 WRI were performed with prescribed CO 2 year 2100. (IPCC AR 5 WGI, ). • The numbers refer to radiative forcings (global energy imbalances), measured in watts per square metre, by the year 2100. Note: For present study 2050 (Had.

Conclusion: • The study highlights the long-term (1982– 2015) inter-annual variation in the NDVIDev, SPI and cropped areas (2000– 2015). • The vulnerability of the region, it is essential to use the satellite derived indices (NDVIDev), the cropped area and its fluctuation, the preceding year’s seasonal precipitation and the sources of irrigation. • The affect of vulnerability is high during winter and summer seasons found to be high. This assessment is on district level. • Future climate (2050) shows decline in agriculture NDVI and increase in agriculture drought vulnerability during summer monsoon period. • In all climate change scenarios of IPCC, the intensity of agriculture drought vulnerability will significantly increase. This significant finding can help in taking apriori steps for adaptation and mitigation.
