Rural Livelihoods
Rural livelihoods refer to the various ways people in countryside areas earn a living and support their families. These livelihoods often depend on agriculture, livestock, fishing, and forestry. Many rural communities engage in small-scale farming, growing crops like rice, wheat, or vegetables, and raising animals for food and income.
In addition to farming, rural livelihoods can include activities such as handicrafts, local trade, and tourism. Access to resources like water, land, and markets plays a crucial role in determining the success of these livelihoods. Sustainable practices are essential to ensure that rural communities can thrive without depleting their natural resources.
