Sawargaon Farmer Producer Company Limited

You can find Sawargaon Farmer Producer Company over at House Number 821 in Rokda Sawargaon. It’s out in the Ahmedpur Taluka of Latur district. This part of Maharashtra can be pretty tough for farming because of the water situation, so we started this company to help each other manage things better. We are all neighbors here in the village. The office is just a room in a house where we keep our ledgers and meet up once or twice a week. It’s not very formal. Most of the time, you’ll find us out in the fields rather than at the desk. We focus on crops like soybean and tur dal, which are common in Latur. By working together, we can buy seeds in bulk and save a little bit of money. It’s a simple idea but it takes a lot of coordination. Sometimes we have meetings that go on too long because everyone has a different opinion, but that’s just how it is with a group of farmers. We don't have a big marketing budget or anyone to write fancy reports. We just do the work and try to make sure our families are taken care of. If you come by Rokda Sawargaon, just ask for the farmer’s group and someone will point you to the right door. We’re just regular people trying to make the most of what the land gives us every year. It isn't much, but it's ours.
