  • 10 families in Manithamala village are not engaged actively for various reasons and faced with certain challenges
  • Challenges – Due to lack of cultivable land around a few homes, vegetables are being grown in agricultural land. Vegetables were found to not grow properly in agricultural land shared by Arecanut, Coconut, Banana farms. Lack of adequate water in the agriculture land was also found to be an issue.
