Kori Kambla

This refers to a kind of collective ploughing and planting on a fixed day for the enelu (Tulu: ಏಣೆಲ್) cultivation.

It highlights the principle of cooperation in cultivation which, in turn, helped in moulding the community life of the people of Tulunadu.

Before sowing is undertaken, it's a custom to place a pillar (known as 'pookare kamba')[3] in the middle of the paddy field.

On the previous day of pookare,[5] an areca tree is felled and placed on the upper part of the field.

[6] During this agriculture based ritual, deities such as Urava, Erubanta, Nagabhoota and Bermer[7] are invoked and worshipped.
