To make it easier to govern the region, the Daga Penlops subdivided their region into the Ling Sum or “Three Gardens” and the Lung Sum, or “Three Forests”. There are two ethnic groups in Dagana ­- Ngalops and Lhotshampas. The settlements are fairly dispersed, and homesteads are comparatively remote.  Today, Dagana farmers produce citrus mandarin, cardamom and dairy products.
