Satkarni Farmers Producer Companylimited

Satkarni Farmers Producer Companylimited is based in Dhorkin. If you’re looking for us, we are at Gajaba Gawali’s house, number 645. Dhorkin is in the Paithan taluka of Aurangabad. It’s a good farming community. Most of us have been working the soil here for generations. Gajaba let us use his place as the main office, so that’s where all the meetings happen. We sit around and figure out the best way to sell our produce without getting cheated. Paithan is famous for its history, but out here in Dhorkin, we are more concerned with the current crop prices. It’s a straight-forward life. We get up early, work the fields, and then meet up at house 645 to talk shop. The company is basically just a way for us to have a bit more power when we go to the market. We don't have a big marketing budget or anything like that. We just rely on each other. Sometimes the weather is against us, and sometimes it’s on our side. We have a lot of small farmers in our group, and everyone has a say in what we do. It isn't always smooth, and we have plenty of long debates over tea. But in the end, we are all neighbors trying to keep our heads above water. That’s the reality of farming in Aurangabad for us.
