Adarshseva Farmer Producer Company Limited

Our group is based in Bhakarwadi, which is near Badnapur in the Jalna district. We use Dattu Dajiba Tidke’s house as our main point of contact for everything. Adarshseva Farmer Producer Company Limited is really just a bunch of neighbors who decided to pool our resources together. Farming around here can be hit or miss depending on the rain, so we thought being a company would help us out with buying and selling. We do not have a big fancy office with air conditioning or anything like that. It is mostly just a room with some chairs where we sit and talk about crop prices and where to get good seeds for the next planting. Most of us have lived in Bhakarwadi our whole lives. We know the land and we know each other very well. That is how we run things—based on knowing who we are dealing with. We handle a lot of different things, whatever the local farmers are growing at the time. It is not always organized perfectly, and sometimes we disagree on what we should do next, but we always figure it out. We are not trying to be the biggest company in Jalna. We just want to make sure the people in our little area of Badnapur are doing okay. If you stop by, you will likely find us drinking tea and talking about the weather.
