The Lambukhola Majuwa flatland, located on the border between Myanglung Municipality and Chathar Rural Municipality in Tehrathum, has been completely transformed into lush greenery by Chaite rice cultivation. Farmers from Kummayak Rural Municipality–5 in Panchthar primarily farm here, where the tradition of community labor remains vibrant. Lambu Dobhan–Majuwa flatland is not only a site of natural beauty but also a vital agricultural hub, sustaining farming despite challenges such as flood risks and a shortage of young laborers.
Situated within Tehrathum’s Myanglung Municipality and Chathar Rural Municipality and adjoining Panchthar’s Kummayak Rural Municipality, the Lambukhola Majuwa flatland is currently covered in vibrant green due to the Chaite rice crop. This expansive, flat terrain stretches between towering hills on both sides, where the gently swaying rice plants present a captivating view. The verdant expanse offers more than just visual relief; it reflects the farmers’ hard work, hopes, and a promising future.
Local farmers from Bhulke, Kummayak Rural Municipality–5 in Panchthar, are actively engaged in key agricultural activities here. This rare flat and fertile land nestled within the mountainous region of Lambu Dobhan receives rich soil, adequate water supply, and favorable climate conditions, yielding excellent harvests every year.

Chaite rice, harvested just before the monsoon season, provides farmers not only with food security but also with an additional source of income.

The tradition of working collectively during planting, helping one another, and sharing labor continues to thrive. The synchronized rhythm of farmers working together in the fields vividly reflects the village’s sense of community and warmth.
