Sukhpur Dyodhi is a village in North Bihar. Sukhpur Dyodhi has fertile alluvial soil as it lies in the plains of Kosi. Climate of the village is mild and monsoon type. Summer is not as hot as compared to northern India, mainly due to its proximity to the eastern Himalayas, but temperature dips down to as cold as 8 °C (46 °F) during winter. Rain is mainly concentrated from May to September.

Most of the villagers are engaged in cultivation and business. On an average, three crops are obtained per year from the same piece of land. Major crops include rice, wheat, mung and corn. Mango and litchi are also major horticulture crops. Mango is major contribution to the farmers' income. Three large tracts of land namely Lalbagh, Kalibagh and Mamabagh are mango orchards yielding huge quantities of the choicest mangoes.
