Maulipatil Rural Farmers Producer Company Limited

Maulipatil Rural Farmers Producer Company Limited is based in Panewadi, which is over in the Ghansawangi area of Jalna. Rameshwar A Umbare is the one who helps keep the place running at house number 371/1. We are a small group of rural folks. We’ve always been farmers, and we probably always will be. This company is just our way of trying to get organized. In this part of Jalna, we have to be smart about how we use our resources. The soil can be tough, and the water isn't always where you want it to be. We spend our days in the fields and our evenings talking about how to improve the next harvest. It’s a very local thing. We don’t have any fancy mission statements or slogans. We just want to grow good food and make enough to survive. Sometimes we have meetings to talk about buying seeds or how to fix a broken well. It’s all very hands-on. We aren't businessmen in the way people in the city are. We are people of the earth. If you come by Panewadi, you’ll see us working the same way our fathers did. We just have a official name now. It’s about community and keeping our village moving forward, one season at a time.
