Kurmi Farmers Producer Company Limited

You can find us in Suigam village, right across from the local UGVCL office. We are operating out of Madevbhai Gangarambhai Chaudhary’s place. Being a farmers producer company means we are really rooted in the local community here in the Vav area. Banaskantha can be a tough place for farming sometimes because the weather is so unpredictable, but the people here work very hard regardless. We do not have a fancy office with air conditioning or expensive furniture. It is more of a place where local people drop by to talk about the latest harvest or what the prices are doing at the local market. There is usually a lot of noise from the main road and people coming in and out at all hours. We focus on getting practical things done for the farmers who are part of our group. It is mostly about sticking together and making sure the crops actually get sold for a fair price. The office itself is quite simple, just some basic desks and some old ledgers. Sometimes we sit outside on the porch if the breeze is blowing right. It is a group effort, really. Everyone knows everyone else in Suigam, so we do not even need a big sign out front to tell people where we are. If you ask anyone near the electricity office, they will point you right to our door. It is just local folks trying to make a go of it. We spend our days dealing with the practical stuff, like seeds and transport and bills. It is what we do.
