Madikeri: Following the Novel Coronavirus and imposition of lockdown in the country and departure of the migrant labour force to their hometowns, the harvest of pepper and post-harvest process of coffee have taken a hit in Kodagu.
In the coffee land of Kodagu, most of the workers at these estates are primarily from north Karnataka and neighbouring districts, including Periyapatna and Hunsur taluks in Mysuru district. Local workers are also sourced for the job as the harvest area is large.
