Satpudanchal Farmer Producer Company Limited

Satpudanchal Farmer Producer Company Limited is based in Patauvapura, which is part of Shahpur in the Betul district. We are set up at Harilal Siroriya’s place. It is a very local operation. Betul has a lot of hills and forests, and the farming here is unique because of the terrain. We spend our days coordinating with the farmers in the Satpuda range. It is a lot of back and forth on dusty roads. The office itself is modest. We have a desk, some chairs, and a ceiling fan that works most of the time. We aren't trying to be some big city corporation. We just want to help the farmers here get their produce to the right places. It takes a lot of coordination and many cups of tea to get things settled. Sometimes the rain makes it hard to get around, so we do a lot of business over the phone. We have got a few ledgers where we write down everything. It is a straightforward way of working. We know everyone in the village, and they know us. There is a certain trust that comes with living and working in the same spot for years. We do not need any polished speeches or mission statements. We just show up every morning and see what needs doing. That is how life goes for us in Betul. We are just trying to make the most of what we have.
