The change in climate specifically deviation in temperature, rainfall pattern (change in number of rainy days, change in on set of monsoon, deviation in amount of rainfall, erratic raining etc.) have a significant impact on the farm production and farm economy. The present study was conducted in Ghoragachha village under Saguna gram panchayet, Nadia, West Bengal. The number of respondents were 60 and were selected randomly. The data were collected trough pilot survey, structured interview and focused group interview. The statistical tools used for data analysis were correlation coefficient, step down regression, path analysis and factor analysis. It has been observed that the variables like size of holding(X4), homestead land(X5), livestock(X10), farm family income(X6)werethe most significant variables. The impact of monsoon on farmers’ income and farm economy are mostly dependent on these aspects.
