Utkal Farmer Producer Company Limited

Utkal Farmer Producer Company Limited is located in Kandaba. We operate from Chaitanya Dhada’s house, which is number 824/442. It’s a local operation run by people who have spent their whole lives in the fields. We didn't start this to become corporate bosses. We started it because it’s hard for a single farmer to get a fair deal. By joining up, we can buy what we need in bulk and sell our produce for a slightly better price. Our office is just a room in the house with a few chairs and some files. We don't have any fancy signs outside. People in Kandaba know us. We spend our days worrying about the crops and the pests. We share advice and help each other out when things get difficult. It’s a very simple way of doing business. We don't use any marketing tricks or big promises. We just tell it like it is. Some seasons are good and some are bad, and we just have to take it as it comes. We are very connected to the land here. It’s not just a job, it’s our life. We try to be honest and fair with everyone we deal with. If you want to talk to us, you can usually find one of us around Chaitanya’s place in the evenings. We’re just regular folks doing our best in the village of Kandaba. It takes a lot of effort but we keep at it.
