But as the time progressed more and more farmers turned up soybean farming rather than chillies because the tedious jobs involved in chilli pepper farming and low yield as compared to the former. Comparatively low fertility of land and weather added to the worries of chilli pepper growers. So the landmark Bhiwapuri Mirchi(Chilli)is very rare to spot today. But still Bhiwapur and nearby area get large amount of chillies from all over India for processing. This involves drying up the chillies under the Sun, separating the stem from the pod, packing in gunny bags and transporting to respective destinations for further processing of consumption. This is the main source of employment for the local people who don't own land for farming. In year 2015 the town is become a nagar panchayat. The 17 no of ward are created in this town. Art BY.
