Lokopkar Farmer Producer Company Limited

Our place is right on Kaij Road in Dharur. It’s the house of Uttamlal Harilal Toshniwal, House Number 1. Being on the main road makes it easy for people to find Lokopkar Farmer Producer Company Limited. We are in the Beed district, where the weather can be quite dry. We work with a lot of farmers who are trying to grow crops in this tough environment. Our office is just a simple room with a couple of desks and a lot of registers. We don’t use fancy computers for everything; sometimes a pen and paper are better. We spend most of our time chatting with the people who stop by. They tell us about their harvest and we see how we can help them. It’s a community thing more than a business. We don't have a big marketing budget or anything. We just rely on people knowing who we are and what we do. The house is a bit old but it’s sturdy. There is usually a bit of noise from the traffic on Kaij Road, but we are used to it by now. We are just trying to do something good for the local farmers here. It’s not a glamorous life, but it’s important to us. If you’re passing through Dharur, you’ll see our sign by the road. We are usually there working hard or having a quick tea break while we talk shop.
