Phiringia Millet Farmers Producer Company Limited

Our office is at Plot No - Nd/8 in the VIP Colony of IRC Village, over in Nayapalli. Phiringia Millet Farmers Producer Company Limited is really about the people back home in Phiringia, but we keep this spot in Nayapalli for our main administrative work. We focus entirely on millets. It is a crop that doesn't get enough credit, even though it is hardy and good for the land. We are a collective of farmers who want to see our crops reach more people. The office in IRC Village is where we handle the paperwork and talk to buyers. It is not a very large place, and it often smells like coffee and old paper. We are not polished speakers or corporate experts. We are just folks who know how to grow millets and want to make sure the farmers get a fair price. We spend a lot of time coordinating between the village and the city. It is a lot of phone calls and bus trips back and forth. We don’t have a fancy marketing team. We just tell people about the quality of the millet we produce. Sometimes we struggle with the logistics of moving grain, but we are getting better at it as we go along. It is an honest living. We like being in Nayapalli because it is central, but our hearts are really in the fields where the millet grows. We are just a group of people working together to keep our traditions alive.
