Krushichandrama Agro Producer Company Limited

Our group is based in Mamdapur, which is under the Ambajogai taluka. We work out of Sachin Shivaji Mamdage’s place. It is a regular house where we keep all the company papers. People in the village know Sachin, so they just come by when they need to talk about the agro business. Ambajogai has a lot of history, but for us, it is mostly about the land and what we can get out of it. We did not want to be just another group of farmers struggling on our own. By forming Krushichandrama, we started looking at things a bit more practically. We do not have a lot of fancy equipment in the office. It is mostly just a table and some ledgers. Sometimes we sit outside under the shade when it gets too stuffy inside the house. The weather in this part of the district can be tough on the crops, so we spend a lot of time worrying about the water. Everyone here knows each other’s families, so the business feels very personal. We are not trying to become some giant corporation. We just want to make sure the folks in Mamdapur get a fair shake when it is time to sell. Most days are long, starting before the sun is really up. We drink a lot of tea and talk about the weather and the markets. It is just the way things are done around here.
