Jireshwar Agro Producer Company Limited

We operate out of Jiradgaon, which is in the Ghansawangi taluka here in Jalna. The company is set up at Laxman Ugale’s place. It is a typical village setup where most of us are farmers first and business people second. We decided to form this producer company to help with the selling of our crops because it was getting hard to do it alone. It is difficult to get a good price when you are just one person, so we figured being a group would be better for everyone. Most of the time, you can find us at the house talking about the rains or the cost of fertilizer. We do not have a big sign or anything flashy. People in the village just know where to find us if they want to join in or if they have something to sell. The work is mostly seasonal. When the harvest comes, it is absolute chaos around here with bags and trucks everywhere in the yard. During the off-season, we just do the maintenance and plan for the next round of planting. It is not always easy keeping everyone happy because every farmer has their own way of doing things. We try to keep it fair for everyone involved. Jalna is our home, and Jiradgaon is a small community, so we have to look out for each other. It is a simple life focused on the land and what we can grow on it.
