Kinhala Mohtola Farmer Producer Company Limited

Kinhala Mohtola Farmer Producer Company Limited operates out of Kinhala. Our main point of contact is Shri Lochan Narayan Patreat. We are based near the post office in Kokadi, within the Wadsa area. This is a small place, and most of us have known each other since we were kids. We started this company because we were tired of doing everything alone. Farming in Kinhala has its ups and downs, mostly depending on the rain. We get together to talk about how to sell our crops without getting cheated. It’s a lot of talk, usually over tea at Lochan’s place. We don’t have a fancy office building with a sign out front. It’s just a house where we keep our files and meet up after a long day in the fields. Some people might think we’re just a small group, but we’re trying to build something that lasts. We don’t use a lot of big business terms because they don't really fit what we do. We’re just trying to organize the harvest and make sure everyone gets a bit more for their hard work. Sometimes we struggle with the technology part of it, but we’re learning as we go. It’s a community effort more than anything else. If you come by Wadsa, you’ll find us just doing our daily chores and looking after the land like we always have. It is hard work but we enjoy it.
