How was the movement of Dhangars useful for farmers?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Animal dung provided manure to the fields
Dhangars moved from place to place with their animals. After harvest, the animals grazed in farmers’ fields and left dung, which acted as natural manure and improved soil fertility. Therefore, option A is correct. Grazing was useful after the crop was harvested; it was not meant to destroy standing crops. Exam tip: remember the mutual benefit of grazing and manure between pastoralists and farmers.
