Challenges in agriculture in tribal areas of Chhattisgarh

Abstract

Agriculture is the primary livelihood for a significant portion of the population in Chhattisgarh, especially in its tribal regions. These areas, predominantly inhabited by indigenous communities, face unique challenges that hinder agricultural productivity and sustainability. Understanding these challenges is crucial for developing effective strategies to improve the agricultural sector and the overall well-being of these communities. These challenges are multifaceted, stemming from socio-economic, environmental, and infrastructural issues. Here, we delve into the primary obstacles faced by farmers in these regions and discuss potential solutions to mitigate them.
