The present study was conducted in Wayanad district of Kerala, to study the perception of tribal farmers on the issues of sustainable rice farming. Issues regarding the sustainable rice farming were identified and categorized into three viz., agro-ecological issues, technical issues and socio-economic issues. Lack of rainfall, fragmented land holdings and crop failure due to flood, drought and other natural calamities were the most serious agro-ecological issues perceived by the tribal rice farmers. Over use of chemical fertilizers and plant protection chemicals, pest and disease outbreak and lack of high yielding varieties suitable to local conditions were emerged as major technical issues. Related to the socio economic, conversion of rice fields into cash crops or commercial purposes, increasing labour wages and lack of agricultural labourers were the issues perceived by the tribal rice farmers.
