        <dc:description>Dokur village, located in Mahbubnagar district of&#13;
Andhra Pradesh was chosen for Village-Level Studies&#13;
(VLS) initiated in 1975 by the Economics Program of the&#13;
International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid&#13;
Tropics (ICRISAT), Patancheru, Hyderabad. The present&#13;
Mahbubnagar district is also known as Palamooru,&#13;
located in the Telangana Region of Andhra Pradesh.&#13;
Dokur village (16° 36’ N and 78° 50’ E) is situated in&#13;
Devarkadra mandal in Mahbubnagar District (16° 73’&#13;
N and 77° 98’ E). Dokur’s original name was “Dakur”&#13;
derived from the Indo-Persian Urdu word “daku,”&#13;
meaning “gang of armed dacoits”. It is believed that&#13;
dacoits used to take shelter in Dakur due to its thick&#13;
vegetation. Eventually, the name Dakur became&#13;
corrupted to Dokur. Dokur is about 130 km from&#13;
Hyderabad. To reach Dokur from Hyderabad, one needs&#13;
to travel to Mahbubnagar district headquarters and then&#13;
to Deverkadra mandal on the surfaced Hyderabad-&#13;
Raichur road, and then travel a further distance of seven&#13;
kilometers south on a metal road. Autorickshaws and&#13;
Road Transport Corporation buses are the main means&#13;
of transportation from Devarkadra to Dokur.</dc:description>
