Kawale Farmers Producer Company Limited

Out here in Wadad, things move a bit slower than in the big cities. Kawale Farmers Producer Company Limited is located at house number 35. It’s a simple place in the Tq-Aundha region of Hingoli. We don’t have a big sign or a lobby for people to wait in. It’s just where we gather to talk about the harvest and the current prices of grain. Most of us have been farming this land for a long time, so we know the soil pretty well. Working in a small village like this means everyone knows your business, which is mostly fine with us. We spend our mornings checking on the crops and our afternoons sitting in the office area trying to make sense of the new records or the market rates. Hingoli can be a tough place to work when the heat really kicks in, but we just keep at it. The house is old but it stays cool enough most days. We have some plastic chairs and a big wooden desk where we keep all the farmer files. There’s no big corporate strategy here to talk about. We just want to make sure the people in Wadad have a way to sell their produce without getting a bad deal from middle men. Sometimes the power goes out for hours and we just sit outside on the porch and wait for it to come back on. It’s just the reality of life here.
