Radhika Kalyani Agro Producer Company Limited

This company, Radhika Kalyani Agro Producer Company Limited, runs out of Sadbhawananagar in Latur. We are set up at Sachin Sharad Kalyani’s place. Latur can get quite dry and hot, so the farming here is a specific kind of work. It’s mostly about managing what the local fields can give us. We are a group that came together because doing it alone was getting too difficult. There are no fancy boardrooms here. We sit down, talk about the crops, and figure out how to handle the logistics. Dealing with agro products involves a lot of waiting for the right season. People in Sadbhawananagar know us as just another part of the community. We aren't trying to be some big national corporation. We just want to make sure the work Sachin and the rest of the team does actually makes a difference for the growers around Latur. Sometimes the office is quiet, other times it’s full of people talking about prices and transport. It’s a real job with real dust on our boots. We keep the books in order and make sure the rules are followed, but the heart of it is just the dirt and the seeds. If you are looking for us, we are just tucked away in the neighborhood. It’s a local operation through and through. We just take it one day at a time, looking at the weather and the fields. That is how life goes for us.
