Kayakhata Rabindra Farmers Producer Company Limited

We are located up in the Jalpaiguri district, specifically in a place called Kayakhatasalsalabari. Babul Sarkar is the person we coordinate through, and his place is where we usually gather to talk. It is a beautiful part of the country, but farming here has its own set of challenges that we deal with. We are a group of local farmers who decided to pool our resources together. Most of us have small plots of land, and it is hard to make a go of it on your own. By working together, we can buy what we need for a bit less and maybe find better places to sell our crops. We spend our days out in the fields, and then maybe we will meet up at Babul’s to talk about the latest prices or which pests are causing trouble this month. It is not a glamorous life. Our clothes are usually stained with mud, and our hands are pretty rough. We do not have a big corporate office with air conditioning. We just have our village and the land around us. The 736208 area is our home, and we care about what we grow here. We handle everything from the initial tilling of the soil to the final bagging of the produce. It is a lot of work, and sometimes we wonder if it is worth it, but then the crops come in and we feel okay again. We are just regular folks from Jalpaiguri trying to do things properly for our families.
