In order to supplement this meagre income, farmers rear animals and also work as labourers under MGNREGA or in cities, especially during non-farming months. Crop failure due to inadequate weather conditions and pest attacks further pose risk to their income. Moreover, the possibility of fall in crop prices at the time of harvest season causes additional worry to the farmers.
