Santa Shishunala Sharif Farmer Producer Company Limited

You can find us at House No. 139 in Goudra Oni. We are right near the Gramdevidyamavva Temple in Attigeri, which is in the Shiggaon Taluq. Our company has a long name, Santa Shishunala Sharif Farmer Producer Company Limited, but we are just a group of farmers from this area trying to do things better. The temple is a big landmark for us, and everyone in the village knows where we are. Our office is just a regular house, really. It’s where we store records and talk about the crops. We don't have a fancy reception or any of that. It’s usually just a few of us sitting around on plastic chairs talking about the rain or the cost of fertilizer. Shiggaon is a quiet place for the most part, but it gets busy during the sowing and harvest times. We try to help the smaller farmers get a better price for what they grow. It’s a lot of work and sometimes it feels like we aren't getting anywhere, but then things start to look up. We don't use big business words because they don't mean much in the fields. We just care about the soil and the people who work it. It’s a community thing more than a business thing, really. We take it one season at a time and hope for the best. That’s how we live here. It’s just how it goes.
