Telangana and Andhra Pradesh is 
Hyderabad, in west-central
Telangana.
 INTRODUCTION TO ITS ECONOMY
Telangana’s economy was long dominated by agriculture,
notably the production of rice. The state’s rivers, particularly
the Godavari and the Krishna, have been tapped to provide
irrigation for the dry interior, although many areas still depend
on the somewhat unpredictable monsoon rainfall. The
Nagarjuna Sagar multipurpose dam project on the border with
Andhra Pradesh, which diverts the waters of the Krishna for
irrigation, has substantially increased the production of rice
and sugarcane. Rice flour, rice-bran oil, paints and varnishes,
soaps , cardboard and other packaging materials, and cattle
feed are all produced from local  rice. Other agricultural
commodities include chili peppers, sorghum, pulses , castor
beans, and peanuts , as well as a variety of tropical fruits.
Livestock raising and aquaculture are also important, each
accounting for a small but still significant component of
annual economic output.
