Of the working extremely poor population, the majority, or 47.94%, worked in the agricultural sector. This includes 24.49% who were unpaid family workers and 22.53% who farmed with the help of unpaid/casual laborers.

Extreme poverty is a condition of inability for people to meet basic needs such as food, clean water, adequate sanitation, health, housing, education, and access to information regarding income and social services.

BPS categorizes extreme poverty based on the World Bank's 2011 purchasing power parity (PPP) standard. A person is categorized as extremely poor if their expenditure is less than $1.9 PPP.
