Gram Panchayat Map
Edarikode Grama Panchayat is one of the major Grama Panchayats under the Vengara Block Panchayat in Tirurangadi Taluk of Malappuram District, Kerala. Located in the central part of Malappuram District, the region has a varied landscape consisting of plains interspersed with small hills. The area experiences a tropical monsoon climate, with heavy rainfall generally occurring from June to September. The presence of laterite soil and alluvial soil makes the region well-suited for agriculture. The major crops cultivated in the area include paddy, coconut, banana, tapioca, and various vegetables. Small streams, ponds, and wells are the major sources of water in the region. State highways and rural roads provide connectivity between the Panchayat and nearby towns and urban centres. Vengara lies to the north, while the Kottakkal region is situated to the south. The Malappuram region lies to the east, and the Tirurangadi region lies to the west. Educational institutions, places of worship, and small-scale commercial centres are important components of the social life of the Panchayat. In addition, the presence and contributions of the Gulf expatriate community provide significant support to the economic growth and development of the region.
