About Thumapara Farmers Producer Companylimited – Agriculture & Farming in Jalpaiguri
Shibnathpur is where we mostly hang out and get our work done. It’s a part of Falakata, under the Alipurduar area, though people often mix it up with Jalpaiguri because we are right on that edge. Naren Karji is the person who keeps everything running from his place. Thumapara Farmers Producer Companylimited is basically just a bunch of local growers who decided to pool things together. We aren't doing anything revolutionary, just trying to get a better handle on how we sell what we grow. The office is really just a functional space where we store some supplies and meet up to discuss the season. Lately, the weather has been a bit unpredictable, so that's been the main topic of conversation over tea. Glossy brochures and big signs aren't really our thing. Most people just know to come to Shibnathpur if they need to talk to the group. It gets busy during the harvest months, with tractors and carts moving around quite a bit. It’s a bit noisy then, but otherwise, it is a fairly calm place to work. Naren usually has the ledger books out, trying to keep track of everyone’s contribution. We have a few younger guys helping with the heavy lifting and the travel to the markets. It’s a practical setup, born out of necessity more than anything else. We just take it one day at a time here and hope for the best with the crops.
