Kashmir Apple Growers Face Significant Losses Due to Road Closures

Kashmir Apple Growers Face Significant Losses Due to Road Closures

Imagine you're a farmer in Kashmir, and you grow delicious apples.

You spend all year taking care of the trees and waiting for the harvest.

But this year, the road that gets your apples to the market is closed because of damage.

This means the apples can't be delivered, and they start to rot.

Without a way to sell the apples, farmers are losing a lot of money, and some might not even earn back what they spent.

It's a big problem because many families depend on apple farming to make a living.

The government is trying to help, but it's not enough to prevent the losses.
