<br/><br/> Using multinomial logit and multivalued treatment effects models on 240 farmers surveyed in 2020–21, the paper identifies key adoption determinants, that is, household head age, operational landholding, and farmer training. Short-duration varieties and laser land levelling increased paddy yield by 6% each, with income gains of 10.37%, 9.32%, and 9.56% for SDVs, LLL, and direct seeding of rice adopters, respectively. In wheat, super seeder, zero tillage, and happy seeder increased yields by 10%–13% and income by 16%–18%. This paper highlights the positive economic impacts of CSAPs on yield and income while also identifying the determinants of adoption in Punjab.- Reproduced<br/><br/>https://www.epw.in/journal/2025/30/special-articles/determinants-farmers-adoption-climate-smart.html<br/>
