Many have started threshing rice in their own backyard.
 
Talking to the farmers, it is known that the yield of rice has been good since the weather has been favorable from planting to harvesting.  Rafiq Dhali of Koira, Raghunath Das of Maharajpur, Rahima of Amadi, Sobhan Sheikh of Bagali said that if there is no rain or kalbaisakhi for 8/10 days, the paddy farmers of Koira are expecting a bumper crop.
