Koliapani Pig Producer Company Limited

Koliapani Pig Producer Company Limited is located in the village of Hanchara. Specifically, we are in the Charialidihingia Gaon area. It’s a very traditional rural spot, and most of us have been raising pigs since we were kids. We decided to form this company to help each other out with things like buying feed in bulk. Our setup is simple. We use the land behind our houses for the pens. It’s not a high-tech operation. We rely on our hands and the knowledge passed down from our parents. The village is small, so everyone knows what we are doing. Some days the smell is a bit much, but that’s part of the life we chose. We spend a lot of time worrying about the price of corn and making sure the pigs don’t get sick. It’s a lot of responsibility. We don't have a big marketing team or anyone to write fancy letters for us. We just write down what we spent and what we earned in a notebook. The roads to Hanchara can be a bit rough, so getting the pigs to market is always an adventure. We just want to produce good quality meat and stay in business for another year. It’s a tough life, but we like being our own bosses and working with the animals every day in our own village. We are just regular people doing the best we can with what we have.
