Mugani Tandwi Farmers Producer Company Limited

If you go to Vill Ballimary, you’ll find where we spend all our time. Mugani Tandwi Farmers Producer Company Limited is based right here in the village, near the Po Ballimary area. We are a small group of farmers who decided to pool our resources. Most of what we do is just regular farming work. We don't have a fancy website or a big office building. Our headquarters is basically just a spot in the village where we all meet up to talk about the crops. The soil around Ballimary is what we know best. We spend our mornings in the fields and our afternoons dealing with the logistical stuff. It’s a lot of work to keep a producer company going when you are also doing the actual farming. We don't use any big words to describe what we do. We just plant things, watch them grow, and then try to sell them. It’s been that way for a long time. The village is small, so everyone knows everyone else’s business anyway. We focus on being honest with each other and working hard. There’s no secret to it. We just use what we have and try to make it work. Some years are better than others, depending on the weather. We stay here because this is where our land is. It’s a simple life, and the company is just a way for us to stay organized as a group. It is just the way we live.
