Kashmiri Farmers Face Rail Project Threat

Farmers in Kashmir have been growing apples for about 25 years because it uses less water than rice and makes them more money.

But now, a new train line is planned, and it might destroy their apple trees and the nice lives they've built.

The farmers are worried because the train line will take away their land and trees.

They say the train isn't even needed because there are already good roads.

The farmers want to be talked to before any decisions are made.

Scientists say the snow and ice in the mountains are melting faster, which is why the farmers switched to apples.

The farmers are hoping someone will listen to them and find a way to keep their trees and their good lives.
