Behichak Farmer Producer Company Limited

Behichak Farmer Producer Company Limited is situated right in Lucknow at Hestia Apartment in Sector 4. It might seem strange to have a farmer company in a city building like C6, but this is where we do all the coordination work. The farmers we work with are out in the fields, but someone has to stay in the city to handle the sales and the government stuff. Lucknow is a big place and it helps to be near the main offices. We spend a lot of time on the phone or traveling back and forth from the rural areas to Sector 4. It can be quite busy and noisy here compared to the villages. We started this because small farmers usually get ignored when they are on their own. By being here, we can find better buyers and talk to people who can help us grow. The apartment is just our base for the paperwork and meetings. Sometimes it feels like we are doing more typing than farming these days, but it is necessary. We have a small group of people who know both the land and the city life. We don't have any big slogans or anything. We just try to get the produce from the farms to the market without too many people taking a cut in the middle. It is a lot of work and sometimes we get tired of the city traffic.
