Chowke Rice & General Mills

You can find us over at Chowke Rice & General Mills. We are located in Chauke. The mill is actually sitting quite near the Rampura Phul Station. You can hear the trains whistling and the engines rumbling throughout the entire day. It is a familiar sound that we have all grown very used to over the years. The mill is a sturdy old place. It has seen many different seasons come and go. We do not have any high-tech systems or fancy computers, just the regular machines that have served us well for a long time. Working in Chauke means being a part of the local community here. We see the same faces every year when the crops are ready. Being so near the station means there is always a bit of a rush nearby. People are always heading somewhere or coming back. We stay right here and handle the grain as it comes in. The work is very physical and my back usually aches quite a bit by the end of a long week. We do not use any complicated words to describe the business. We just take the harvest and process it through. The storage sheds are quite big and they can get very dark when the storm clouds roll in. We have some old lamps we turn on then. It is a very basic setup. Being close to Rampura Phul is convenient for everyone who brings their crops.
