This paper tries to analyze adaptation strategies by small and marginal farmers having 0.1 acre of land in average (which were almost uncultivable due to water logging) by re-shaping of their farming land to make the land cultivable and to accommodate multiple subsystem (pond – rice field – vegetable garden), diversifying farming system with introduction of multiple components (fish-duck-azolla-rice-vegetable) with multistory arrangement hence diversifying the source of income and reducing dependency on a single crop, rainwater harvesting as a source of fresh water and proper crop selection.
