Devnath Agro Producer Company Limited

We are based out of Salempur in the Chaura area, specifically at Sarwan Kumar Pathak’s place. Devnath Agro Producer Company Limited is a small collective we started to manage our agricultural work more effectively. It’s mostly family and friends from the village who are involved. We don't have a massive warehouse or anything; we just use what we have available to us. A typical day starts pretty early with a check on the fields and then seeing what needs to be transported. Since we’re a smaller group, everyone has to do a bit of everything. One day you might be driving the tractor and the next you’re trying to figure out the tax papers. It keeps things interesting, even if it’s a bit tiring by the end of the week. The soil in Salempur is quite decent, so we try to make the most of it. We’ve had to learn a lot about the business side of things as we go along. It wasn't something we were used to, coming from a background of just plain farming. But having the company helps us stay organized and gives us a bit more stability. We aren't looking to become some huge corporation with offices in the city. We just want to make sure our families are taken care of and that the work we do on the land doesn't go to waste. It’s a quiet life here for the most part, and we are happy with that.
