Similar to any other village of south-east Burdwan, this is also agriculture based. After land reform in west Bengal the agricultural lands were distributed here also from the big land lords. Though there are few family where large area of lands are still accumulated but there are many family who have small amount of agricultural lands. In the last two decades because of the open market economy all over India has increased the cost of farming largely. Now agriculture is no more profitable occupation for the small farmers. A large number of people in this village are engaged now in construction industry. Few middle-class or upper-middle-class family members are engaged in rice related business. There are peoples engaged in self owned business and in government service in different sectors.
