Bagdah Krishikranti Farmars Producer Company Limited

Down here in North 24 Parganas, specifically in the Baichidanga Helencha Colony, things are usually quiet. Prasanta Kumar Bhadra is the person you’d look for if you were coming to see where Bagdah Krishikranti Farmars Producer Company Limited is based. It’s out in Berabari, which isn't the easiest place to get to if you aren't from around here. We spend a lot of our time just figuring out the daily tasks. It’s not some high-rise building with glass windows. It’s a house, basically. We have our papers and our meetings there. Sometimes the power goes out, and we just wait it out or move outside. It’s real life, nothing like what you see on the news. North 24 Parganas is a big district, but our little corner feels small. We know the neighbors, and they know Prasanta. We’ve got the address set up at 743270, and that’s where the mail comes. We don’t do things in a flashy way. It’s about the farming and the people who do it. We talk about the rain a lot because it matters for what we do. If you happen to be in Berabari, you might see the sign or just hear people talking about the producer company. We just keep our heads down and do the work that needs doing every day. It is not fancy but it is ours.
