Officials Propose Bamboo Plantation to Resolve Podu Land Conflict

Officials Propose Bamboo Plantation to Resolve Podu Land Conflict

Imagine a group of farmers, called podu cultivators, who are using land that the forest department claims belongs to them.

There was a conflict, and now the government is trying to find a solution.

The plan is to grow bamboo on the land, sharing the money made from it with the farmers.

The government will also help them by giving them money for the bamboo and teaching them how to grow it.

The farmers are not sure if they will leave the land or not.
