Loss of traditional food sources and farming methods, water scarcity
We are tribals, and we are nature worshippers. We always depend on trees and plants to live, sustaining our livelihood by eating their tubers, fruits, and roots. This deep connection benefits our health, even though people of other categories sometimes despise these wild foods. It's a way of life that keeps us strong and rooted. Our ancestors have lived here for generations, farming with plows and oxen, methods we continue today. Yes, we cultivate a second crop with zero irrigation, following traditional farming and protecting our seeds. This isn't just about growing food; it's about honoring the wisdom passed down to us. These practices are part of the traditional customs that help us stay mentally strong and emotionally balanced. They connect us to our land and our past, providing a foundation even when we feel more anxious or stressed than before.
