Farming mainly depends upon natural showers as mere 14.82% of total cultivated land is irrigated. Bamboo craft, lac cultivation, Kosa-silk, bell metal etc, are also source of livelihood of artisans in few pockets. Most of artisans are traditionally associated with their craft, hence traditional methods prevails
This is why the residents in area fall under low-income group. Poverty affects not only in terms of nutrition, education, and health, but also in terms of self-reliance, awareness, and confidence. Lack of employment opportunities force people to leave home for work. Thereby human trafficking is also a big problem.
