Magwas Mahila Kisan Producer Company Limited

Down in Magwas, in the Jhadol area, we’ve set up this producer company for the local women. We are at address number 01, which is easy to find if you’re in the village. It’s mostly us women running things. We spend our mornings in the fields and our afternoons handling the business side of things. It’s a lot to manage, but we’ve gotten used to it. The room we use is simple, with some mats on the floor and a few benches. We talk about what seeds we need and how to get a better price for what we grow. There’s a lot of laughter and sometimes some arguments about how to do things, but we always figure it out. We don’t have a secretary or a big sign outside. People just know to come here if they need help with their harvest. Most of us have kids running around while we work. It’s a community effort. Jhadol is a beautiful place, but the work is hard. We handle everything from the planting to the final sale. We use what we have and don't waste anything. It’s not about being a big company. It’s about making sure our families have what they need. We just keep our heads down and keep working. Sometimes we share a meal after a long day of sorting grain and seeds together. It makes the heavy lifting feel a bit lighter when you have friends by your side.
