In the village, families living in orange production have got employment. After earning a good income, young educated people are active in orange farming. The economic condition of the village has also changed due to oranges.

82-year-old Homanath Paudel of Panini Rural Municipality-1 Simle is busy selling oranges along with his son-in-law and grandchildren. He said that when he was young in an Indian colony, when he heard the proverb "Nepali came without food", he left his job for 7 years and returned to his birthplace Simle in 2026. There were one/two orange trees in the house . They did not sell the grown seeds. It was customary to give pahur to the guests who came. He produced the plants himself. Some seedlings were brought from Gulmi and planted all over the garden. 

Gave orange plants to the neighbor in exchange for grain, ghee, doko, namlo, firewood and farm labor. At that time, his only goal was to earn more than the salary of an Indian army soldier from oranges. Within four years of planting, the orange trees began to bear fruit . He took 400 grains to Palpa Tansen and sold them for one rupee. He is a Housie . 

"I felt very unkind compared to the Nepalese who came to Indian Paltan without food," he said, "I had left my job and returned to farm oranges." Now I have succeeded, money is coming in every year from oranges like the pension of an Indian paltan. He said that after the money started coming in from selling, all the villagers started farming oranges. "There is not much grain farming now," he said They used to run to work in other cities of the country. When people from other parts of the district are leaving their houses and migrating, the orange farming in Simle has stopped the migration. 

Homanath provoked villager Dautari to cultivate oranges without going anywhere. Due to his donation, the entire village of Simle is now self-employed through commercial orange farming. 53 households in the village are earning an annual income of 1 lakh to 1.5 lakh rupees.

Paudel has four sons and four daughters. All sons are happy in orange farming . Eldest son Keshav's 600 orange trees, Milo Revathi's 600 trees, Silo Chiranjeevi's 500 trees and younger Narayan's 300 trees are getting income. He makes his four sons compete every year to grow the most orange seeds. 

His four sons have been living separately by dividing them. He lives with his eldest son Keshav . Meanwhile, Revathi and Chiranjeevi have returned after going abroad and are enjoying orange farming. "I have passed the graduation level, to go to the government job and to go abroad," Narayan said, "I earn more money from oranges than jobs." Last year, I saved 10 lakhs rupees from 300 plants in 10 plantations, now the plants have only grown, 14 lakhs is not enough. All four sons of Homanath look at the seeds on the plant to see the progress of orange cultivation. "I have cultivated oranges with the help of my father and three brothers," he said. The dealer will bring the car home and buy it.' 

Among her four siblings, Revathi earns the most. He saves 15 lakhs annually, Kesh and Chiranjeevi save up to 8 lakh rupees . The same effort should be made to grow more and bigger seeds in one plant. "The seeds should be removed from the plant within 15 days, if it is left late, it will produce less next year," Revathi said, "After removing the seeds, we irrigate the plants, we do dung manure and khanzot throughout the winter." The amount of urea, potash and black manure should be adjusted.' He said that the better the manure and care, the more seeds will grow. Since the seeds have grown on the plant, it is supported on a branch. 

There is reconciliation between all the brothers . "Father takes care of everyone's fields," he said. He said that no matter how much income he earns from Suntala, he does not think of migrating to the city and Terai.

'For a few years, I went to work abroad because of the desire to earn more than here,' said Chiranjeevi, 'because I got better income from oranges here than abroad, I started farming vegetables such as cauliflower, cabbage, radish, ginger and turmeric is . Buses, trucks, jeeps and cars travel from Simle village to district headquarters Sandhikhark and Palpa Tansen to Butwal, so the manufactured goods are easily exported to the city by all vehicles. 

The entire village of Simle is self-employed

Revati Bhattarai, a young farmer who passed class 12, spent three years in foreign employment. After returning, he is active in commercial orange farming . 315 plants are bearing fruit in Pakhobari. 135 plants are new. About one hundred plants are being prepared to be added. He earns 9 lakh rupees annually from oranges. Butwal oranges are exported from home by car. He has built a two-and-a-half-storey concrete house in the village with the income from oranges. "When we cultivated grain in Pakhobari for a year, it was not enough to eat for 6 months," he said, "Oranges changed our lives." After suffering, the income is good, now I will never go abroad, I will expand orange farming here.'  

Neighbors have a bet on who will grow the most and biggest grains . All the villagers are active in orange cultivation by joining the group. Farmer Sita Paudel, who is a good farmer, told how to produce more oranges after consultation and discussion in the village. Women are more active in orange farming in Simle village . Men who have gone for foreign employment and who are thinking of going abroad have also been stopped by women and made to join orange farming . Ramprasad Paudel, who spent his life in orange farming, has also engaged his son in orange farming. ``There are orange plants in Pakhobari,'' he said. Oranges have changed our economic situation as there is no grain cultivation. He earns 9 lakhs annually from oranges.

Bhaskar Paudel, a young farmer of Pokharathok, earned 6 lakhs by selling oranges from the garden last year. He said that due to the increase in production this year, the income will be up to 9 lakhs. After returning home after working in India, he has made orange farming the main source of income. Chiranjeevi Poudel, president of Shivshakti Mixed Farmers Group, said that last year, Rs 60 million was brought into the village from the sale of oranges. He estimated that the income will reach 70 million due to double and bigger grains than last year. Farmers have been selling oranges at 85 rupees per kg.

After that, commercial orange cultivation has been flourishing in the villages of Pokharathok, Khidim, Maidan, Mareng, Arghatosh, Malarani, Khandah, Sakindhara of Hanspur and other villages of Chhatradeo Rural Municipality. 

'Currently, we will extend the program to increase the production of farmers by modern methods in the places where oranges are grown and to attract farmers to farm in coordination with the local level in other villages where oranges are grown,' Buddhiraj Ghimire, the head of Krishi Gyan Kendra, said. We have helped them on how to prevent diseases, when to give sewage and how to care for them . We have also attracted farmers to plant orange trees in the vacant fields and kharyans in Shimle village. Ghimire said that the income from oranges is like a pension because it keeps coming every year. He said that various programs related to oranges were also conducted for the farmers.
