Kanghon Farmer Producer Company Limited

We are located in Howraghat town, right near the SBI bank. It's house number 311. If you know Karbi Anglong, you know how things work in these parts. A group of us decided to start Kanghon Farmer Producer Company a while back. We are mostly hill people and farmers. The name Kanghon comes from our local roots and language. We deal with the crops that grow in this hilly terrain. It’s quite different from farming in the plains. We have to deal with slopes and different kinds of soil conditions. Our office is a handy place for us to meet after a long day in the fields. We talk about what seeds are working and how to get our produce down to the main market. It’s not a polished operation at all. There is usually some dust on the floor and a lot of muddy boots at the door. We are just trying to get organized so we can get better prices for what we grow. Being near the bank is helpful for the paperwork part of things, which we aren't very good at. Farming here is a way of life, not just a job for us. We grow things like ginger or whatever else the current season supports. We are not looking to become a giant corporation. We just want the farmers in Howraghat to have a fair shake. It’s tough work, but it's honest and we like it.
