Bide Farmer Producer Company Limited

Bide Farmer Producer Company Limited is located in Kumbhari. We operate out of Tulshiram Babasaheb Bide’s place. It is a quiet village in the Badnapur taluka. Most of us who are part of this group have known each other for years. We all have our own small plots of land nearby. We thought it would be better to work as one group instead of fighting the market alone. Kumbhari is not a big place, so you won't see any large signs for us. We just use the space at Tulshiram’s house to store some supplies and meet up. Badnapur gets very hot in the summer months, which makes the work out in the sun pretty draining. We don't have a corporate structure or any marketing people. It is just us farmers. We spend our time worrying about the monsoon and the quality of the soil. Sometimes the roads to the village get washed out, but we still find ways to move our goods. We don't have a website or anything like that. If someone wants to talk to us, they usually just walk up to the house. It is a very practical way of doing things. We aren't trying to be something we are not. We just want to make a living from what we grow. Kumbhari is where our families are, and this company is just our way of staying here and surviving.
