While the hills stretch from the north to the south-east, the rest is rolling area, which is less conducive to agricultural operations than the alluvial tract. The net sown area of the district is around 28%. Thus though the district is predominantly agricultural it offers only limited opportunities to the people. Many people from the district migrate to the neighbouring districts of West Bengal during the agricultural seasons. =Stone chips industry= Pakur is a centre of mining of black stone which is in great demand in the construction industry.

In their first year, the Buffalo News named them Best Local Band. They also won the ninth annual WBNY Battle of the Bands. Their first LP Cheeses of Nazareth was distributed nationally, and recognized as Best Local Album by the Buffalo Times. It opened for bands such as Cheap Trick, Everclear, Mercury Rev, and Shudder to Think. Twice the band performed at the International North by Northeast Festival in 1998, when they were a three-piece. They also played at the Friendship Festival in Ontario. Vocalist Mark Norris won Original Male Vocalist at the 2001 Buffalo Music Awards. According to the Buffalo News, the band "was given to taking Kinks-inspired riffs, doubling the tempo, and then adding the sort of rough-but-right grit to the proceedings that belied the influence of their forebears, be they Ramrods or Stooges." Disbanding in 2004, a farewell show was performed on November 27, 2004. The group then played a reunion show in 2009 and reunited again in December 2015 in Buffalo. Mark Norris went on to form a new band named Mark Norris and The Backpeddlers. Brandon Delmont began playing in A House Safe For Tigers and Son of the Sun. Tommy Stanford began playing bass in the Missing Planes with Matt Barber; the "fifth" member of girlpope and plays lead guitar and sings in "The Nothing").
