500 _aIndigenous Peoples confront the impacts of changing climate by using local sustainable adaptation strategies that they have developed through time. But the Indigenous Peoples do not live-in isolation since recent scientific knowledge also reach them. Thus, adaptation proceeds with the interface of Indigenous and modern knowledge and practices. The study was focused on the interface of Indigenous and modern/recent farming practices in adaptation to climate variability as experienced by Kalanguya farmers in Sta. Fe, Nueva Vizcaya from 2010 to 2015. Descriptive-correlation research method was used. Data were obtained through questionnaires. Images and pictures were used to describe the Indigenous farming practices of the Kalanguya. Data is analyzed by using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Independent variables were described in frequency counts, percentages, means and standard deviation. Correlations using Pearson's r and Spearman Rho were used in analyzing the relationships between variables. Results revealed the interface of Indigenous and modern farming practices in adaptation to climate variability: 1. The Indigenous farming practice of inum 'an is positively and significantly correlated with modern farming practices like choosing short-season varieties of crops, planting crops in a shifting date, planting drought-resistant crops, applying chemical fertilizers, investing in livestock other than crops, and availing for crop insurance. 2. The Indigenous farming practice of gengen is positively and significantly correlated with the modern farming practices of choosing short season varieties of crops, planting drought-resistant crops, and applying for crop insurance. 3. The Indigenous farming practice of day-og is positively and significantly correlated with the modern farming practices of choosing short season varieties of crops, planting drought-resistant crops, investing in livestock other than crops and applying for crop insurance.
