Due to the abundant flow of Godavari water from the Kaleshwaram project, the cultivated area in the region has expanded considerably. Three years ago, only 7,000 to 8,000 acres were under cultivation, with sufficient local labour available for farming activities. However, with the irrigation from the Kaleshwaram project, cultivation has expanded to around 40,000 acres in the constituency, leading to a shortage of agricultural labour.
