Hand-carved wooden yokes used to pair buffaloes for Kambala races and farm work.
Understand
The wooden yoke is essential equipment for Kambala, the traditional buffalo race of coastal Karnataka, and for everyday farm ploughing, making its crafting a quietly essential rural trade.
Craftsmen select and season hardwood, then hand-carve and shape it to fit a specific pair of buffaloes, balancing strength with comfort for the animals.
