وبدأت زراعتها بشكل رسمي منذ المئة وعشر عاماً. قبل الزيتون، كان الأهالي يعتمدون على كروم العنب لمصدر معيشتهم الرئيسي. Its cultivation officially began one hundred and ten years ago. Before olives, the residents relied on vineyards as their main source of livelihood.
وبالإضافة إلى زراعة الحبوب والأشجار المثمرة، وكانت تزرع في الوديان كلاً من التين والمشمش والتفاح والفستق. In addition to growing grains and fruit trees, and figs, apricots, apples, and pistachios were planted in the valleys.

Bi vê hezkirine mezin bûn e. We grew up with this love.
Tarîx kevn e. Xelas nabe. History is old. It does not finish.
Hîç wext... em nikanin bibên. At no time... can we say.
Lakin no em hê bixwazin, bela em tarîxa xwe miqyat bin. But now if we still want, let us take care of our history.
Mila vir vît, di heyata me da çê nebin. Let [bad things] not happen in our life.
Xêr, hewa tarîx e. Good, this is history.
Tarîx jî kevirê ya pîwerim. History is also the stone of the measurer [old man].
Na dem te bilîzim. I won't give it to you, I will play.
Sûcê me, sûcê me ye. Our fault, is our fault.
Ne sûcê me, ne sûcê me ye. What isn't our fault, isn't our fault.
Em sûcê xelkê nakin daweya xwe. We don't make the people's faults our claim.
Sûcê di heqê xelkê de cî nabin ji xwaro. Faults regarding the people do not have a place from below [baselessly].
Belê temaşevanên hêja, îrojî em gihiştin dawiya bernameya xwe. Yes dear viewers, today we have reached the end of our program.
Ji gundê Xalnêrê, em ê xatir bixwazin. From the village of Khalnere, we will say goodbye.
Li benda me bin, di beşek nû de, ji programa Gundên Me. Wait for us, in a new episode, of the program Our Villages.
Bi xatirê we. Goodbye.
