Krishi Vikash Kendra

Krishi Vikash Kendra is located on New Sanganer Road in the Mansarovar area. This place is mainly for the folks who are doing farming or have big gardens. We keep a lot of seeds, fertilizers, and tools that people need for their land. The shop has a specific smell of earth and chemicals which I have grown to like over the years. We spend a lot of time talking to people about their crops and what bugs are eating their plants this season. It is more than just selling things; it is about listening to the weather and how the soil is doing. Mansarovar is growing fast, so we see more people with small backyard gardens now too. We have bags of urea stacked up in the corner and rows of sprayers hanging on the wall. The floor is concrete and often has a bit of dirt on it because people come in straight from their fields. We open early because farmers like to get their supplies before the sun gets too high. It is a practical business. We don't have fancy displays, just the stuff that works. Sometimes the paperwork gets backed up on the desk, but we eventually get through it. It is good to be on New Sanganer Road because it is easy for the tractors to pull up and load things. We just stay busy with the seasons and the cycle of planting and harvesting that happens all around us.
