Apna Gaon Bioenergy Farmer Producer Company Limited

You can find us over at Raj Kumar Singh’s place in Sohawal. We are located in the Faizabad area, postcode 224126. Apna Gaon Bioenergy Farmer Producer Company Limited is a name that sounds pretty big, but we are just local people. We focus on bioenergy and farming, which is something that is starting to get more attention around here lately. It’s a learning process for all of us every day. We spend our mornings talking to the farmers and our afternoons looking at the waste materials we can use for energy. The office is very simple and we usually have some tea while we discuss the plans for the coming week. It is not a high-stress corporate environment, but we do take the work seriously because it is our livelihood. Faizabad has good land, and we want to use it the right way for the future. We have had some ups and downs with the equipment and the weather, but that is just expected in this line of work. We don't use a lot of big words to describe what we do here. We just want to turn what we grow into something useful like energy. It’s a practical way to look at the future of farming. Some days are slow and we just sit and wait for the harvest to come in. Other days, everyone is running around trying to get things loaded onto the trucks. We are just a group of neighbors trying to build something that lasts for the whole village. It feels good to work with people you have known your whole life.
