Gulvane Agro Producer Company Limited

Our spot is at House Number 196 in the village of Kothala, which is part of Ghansawangi in the Jalna district. Gulvane Agro Producer Company Limited is basically just a collection of us local folks who grew tired of trying to handle everything alone. Jalna can be a tough place to farm depending on the rain, and being in Kothala, we all face the same issues year after year. We decided to put our names together and form this company to help with the buying and selling side of things. It is much easier to get things done when you have a bit of a formal group. The house where we keep our records is usually busy with people coming in to check on prices or talk about the soil. We don’t use any big words or have a mission statement on the wall. We just want to make sure the work we put into the fields translates into enough money to keep going next year. Everyone here has mud on their boots and a lot of practical knowledge that you can’t get from a book. We keep things straightforward. If something works, we do it. If it doesn't, we try something else. It is a community thing more than a business thing, really. We're just neighbors working the Jalna earth and trying to stay ahead of the weather and the markets every single day.
