Rice serves as a primary fuel source globally, providing essential carbohydrates for human activity. This study investigates the socio-economic status, production opportunities, and challenges faced by paddy farmers in the Mancherial district of Telangana, India. Utilizing a Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approach, data was collected from 75 farmers across four villages—Itikyala, Medaripet, Gudem, and Rampur. Results indicate a male-dominated agricultural structure where 90.6% of farmers fall within the active age range of 35-45 years. Despite significant participation in manual labour, women remain largely excluded from agricultural decision-making due to prevalent patriarchal systems. The study identifies irrigation scarcity and high labour costs as primary constraints, while PCA analysis reveals that farmers prioritize high grain yield and marketability in variety selection.
