We assessed the influence of demographic, institutional factors, and farm characteristics on the adoption of twenty climate change adaptation practices. We used climate change impact survey data of 800 households for Province 1 and analyzed the data using the Poisson regression and corrected the overdispersion using Negative Binomial regression. The results revealed that the operational size of landholding, years of experience in farming and formal education of the household head, the association of members in cooperatives and community- based organizations, the occurrence of disasters in the last five years, male-headed households, and receiving remittance influenced the adoption of a package of climate change adaptation practices in agriculture in Nepal. The results imply that policies should be geared towards Original Research Article
