Bhogpur Progressive Farmer Producer Company Limited

Bhogpur Progressive Farmer Producer Company Limited is run out of Ashok Kumar’s house in the Vill Didhanpo Tikkar. We are a small group of local farmers who decided to pool our resources together. It is a lot easier to manage things like buying seeds or getting a tractor if you do it as a group. Ashok is the one who keeps all the records and handles the mail. His place is where we all gather to talk about the upcoming season. It is a humble setup, nothing like those big offices you see in the cities. We spend most of our time out in the fields anyway. The company is just a way for us to be more organized. We have all known each other for years, so there is a lot of trust. We don’t really do any advertising. Most people around here just know who we are. Sometimes the market prices aren’t great, and we have to figure out a plan together. It’s a bit of a struggle sometimes, dealing with pests or lack of rain, but having the company helps us stay focused. We are just trying to make a living and keep the farms going for the next generation. It’s practical, everyday work. We aren't trying to be anything we’re not. Just a bunch of farmers helping each other out in the village of Didhanpo Tikkar.
