Visvesvaraya Krushivikas Producer Company Limited

Visvesvaraya Krushivikas Producer Company Limited is tucked away in Sena Nagar. We are at C/O Annaray M Sheelavant, Plot Number 13, CTS Number 38/K, right opposite the AMC Hospital. It’s a bit of a busy area with the hospital traffic and people coming and going all day, but it works for us. We wanted to name the company after Visvesvaraya because we value hard work and building things right. Most of us involved are farmers from the surrounding areas who needed a central place to handle the business side of our work. The office is just a plain room with a couple of tables and some chairs. It’s where we deal with all the paperwork and the phone calls that we can’t handle while we’re out in the dirt. We aren't corporate types; half the time we’re coming in straight from the fields with dirt still on our clothes. We help each other out with seeds and figuring out the best time to sell our produce. It’s a community effort. Being near the hospital means there’s always noise and people around, which is a big change from the quiet of the farms. We just try to keep things organized so that the farming families can actually see some profit for all the sweat they put in. It’s a practical, everyday kind of job that keeps us busy until late in the evening.
