Abstract

Rural-urban migration has been very evident in global population changes in recent decades, especially in India, where migration growth rates are among the highest in the world. Many research articles focused only on the migration of young farmers in India. This article highlights the migration of young farmers from rural to urban areas in Bengaluru, their sustainability, and a survey made on the young farmer's migration. In this context, the study was conducted in the Bangalore region on the migration of Anantapur young farmers, Andhra Pradesh. This study examines the sustainability of young farmers after migration to urban areas and, based on this objective, to find out young migrant farmers are financially well-being or not. For the purpose of analysis, 500 primary data are collected from the young migrant farmers. The Probit model is employed to assess whether young migrant farmers were economically stable or not. The study's findings show that young migrated farmers to urban areas are more likely to be unsustainable due to the cost of living and additional costs. Young migrant farmers do not have enough income so they take loans from private lenders to meet their needs.
