  • community forestry
  • wildlife-compatible agriculture and watershed services.

Natural calamities on record

  • Hazards affecting Laljhadi are typical of Kanchanpur: Monsoon floods, wildfire, thunderstorms, crop-raiding by wild animals, and occasional drought. Floods along Mahakali and local rivers affect settlements.
