[[Tube well]] is the main source of irrigation here which constitutes about 95% of total irrigated area. This is the reason why ground water level is gone very deep because of tubewells. Demand of canal extension of [[Agra Canal]] and gurgaon canal to this area from [[Bharatpur district]] is very crucial for this area. Main crops grown in this area are [[Wheat]], [[Mustard plant|Mustard]], [[Pearl millet|Bajra]], [[Legume|Gram]]. And many fruits and vegetables are grown in this area.

Besides agriculture nowadays, many people serves in govt. jobs from this area. And many serves in defence services also mainly in delhi police and rajasthan police and some in army, bsf and airforce.
