Bhoyar Caste

The Bhoyars are a cultivating caste who have immigrated from the north through Betul, which is now their headquarters.

Bhoyar is a cultivating caste residing principally in several regions of Central India like Betul District and Chhindwara District. However, the Bhoyar community is not found outside the central provinces of the country. The name Bhoyar is derived from the word 'bhor', which means morning.

They are farmers by tradition. They cultivate mainly sugarcane. They speak a form of the Malwi dialect of Rajputana, and Hindi.
