&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Floods, droughts, floods again &amp;mdash; Marathwada farmers have suffered at the hands of extreme weather events for decades. Their economic standings have taken a beating too, which has led to a unique problem: The chances of men from the affected villages getting married has started to thin.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Years of droughts and erratic rains have heavily impacted agricultural income, leading to several social issues like the lack of brides. Even farmers don&amp;rsquo;t want their daughters to marry other farmers and look for matches in urban areas or grooms with stable jobs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Maharashtra suffered 79 droughts during 2010-2020 &amp;mdash; way more than the 11 it faced during 1970-1980, according to non-profit Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW). A report mentioned extreme weather events in Marathwada, including districts like Nanded, Jalna, Latur, Aurangabad and Osmanabad.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Parts of western Maharashtra, including Kolhapur, Pune and Sangli districts, were affected too.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;These areas have also shown extreme flood events in the past three years, according to India Meteorological Department data. The region has received normal or above-normal rainfall that damaged crops and led to floods.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;In 2022 alone, the incessant rains in July, August and September damaged over 4 million hectares of agricultural land. In the past 50 years, the flood frequency has increased by almost eight times in India, said another CEEW report released in 2020.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Such extreme weather events increased uncertainties related to agriculture and rural livelihoods, it added. Years of these uncertainties are now reflected in the social fabric of these farmers.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

In the past 50 years, the flood frequency has increased by almost eight times in India, said another CEEW report released in 2020.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Such extreme weather events increased uncertainties related to agriculture and rural livelihoods, it added.

Water, Marathwada women’s woe: No brides for farmers as families look for city matches -Himanshu Nitnaware

-Down to Earth Access to water, better infra drive marriage prospects as women yearn for more 'comfortable' lives Floods, droughts, floods again — Marathwada farmers have suffered at the hands of extreme weather events for decades. Their economic standings have taken a beating too, which has led to a unique problem: The chances of men from the affected villages getting married has started to thin.   Years of droughts and erratic rains have heavily impacted agricultural income, leading to several social issues like the lack of brides. Even farmers don’t want their daughters to marry other farmers and look for matches in urban areas or grooms with stable jobs. Maharashtra suffered 79 droughts during 2010-2020 — way more than the 11 it faced during 1970-1980, according to non-profit Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW). A report mentioned extreme weather events in Marathwada, including districts like Nanded, Jalna, Latur, Aurangabad and Osmanabad. Parts of western Maharashtra, including Kolhapur, Pune and Sangli districts, were affected too.  These areas have also shown extreme flood events in the past three years, according to India Meteorological Department data. The region has received normal or above-normal rainfall that damaged crops and led to floods.  In 2022 alone, the incessant rains in July, August and September damaged over 4 million hectares of agricultural land. In the past 50 years, the flood frequency has increased by almost eight times in India, said another CEEW report released in 2020.  Such extreme weather events increased uncertainties related to agriculture and rural livelihoods, it added. Years of these uncertainties are now reflected in the social fabric of these farmers.  Please click here to read more.
