They have an average height of 900 metres (3,000 ft), reaching 1,350 metres (4,430 ft) in places.

Irrigation is problematic in the area.[3] ### Terai region The Terai region, plains, forms the southernmost part of Nepal and goes to India's [Bihar](/source/Bihar). Since ancient times, the region has had large public density and is a good place for farming, so it is called Treasurer of grain.[3] ## Rivers There are four major rivers in this district that flow into India: the [Bagmati](/source/Bagmati_River) and Manushmara river "(sisaut)" the Hardi (Banke), the [Lakhandei](/source/Lakhandei_River) and the Jhim.
