Employment is the main
source of income. However, 30% people, mostly illiterate, old
and women are engaged in agro-pastoral activities. Land is
partially owned by community.
Livestock rearing,
subsistence agriculture, fuel wood, fodder and water
collection etc are mostly carried out by rural women. Wheat
and maize are the commonly grown crops.
The village is rain-fed
but soil is fertile enough to produce above average crop
yields (1.6 tons per acre). Dubran top (about 5500 feet high)
is the point from where 80% area of the valley is
visible.
A Pakistan communication
company has built repeaters and boosters towers here to
provide communication links in-between Thandiani and the
valley to operate different exchanges and other communication
equipments. A black top road links the village with main road
at Langrial.
