Economy
Basically people are dependent on agriculture and its relevant work. However, since 1995 a group of people go for concrete work where they build up new buildings and/or cement roads around 50 km surrounding.

In earlier days, people used to go Bangalore for the same building construction work. Then, they would go for reaping paddy in southern districts, reaping groundnut near the Andhra Pradesh border.

Now, most of the farmers are not cultivating the olden days crops like paddy, ground nuts, turmeric, elephant yam, urid dal, tapioca, cotton, pearl millet, ragi, corn, etc. But sugar cane cultivation is the major farming here for the past few years.
