No rains, no labourers, Anantpur ryot forced to put young sons to work
New Indian ExpressANANTAPUR : The image of two young boys helping their father till a piece of land under the scorching sun in Anantapur district starkly reflects the sorry state of farmers in the region. After the death of his only ox, Boya Sarddanappa, a native of Nuthimadug village in Kamabadoor mandal, was forced to put his sons to work in his field for cultivating tomatoes. Even if he could, paying them would have been burdensome considering that the drought last year significantly hampered the farmer’s yield and profits. The farmer purchased two cows and an ox for dairy farming and farm work.
