Dashmesh Rice & General Mills

Our place, Dashmesh Rice & General Mills, is located out in Tehsil Jagraon on Lakha Road. We are specifically in Hathur, which is a spot we’ve called home for quite some time now. Dealing with rice and general milling is what we do every day. It’s not an easy job because the dust gets everywhere and the machines are really loud, but it is the work we know. The road out here to Lakha can be a bit quiet during the off-season, but once harvest hits, everything changes. You see tractors lined up and trucks moving in and out all day long. We try to keep things organized but sometimes it just gets chaotic. That’s just the nature of the mill business. We don't have a big staff or any fancy offices. It is just the mill and the grain and the people who bring it to us. Sometimes the weather doesn't go our way and that makes things a bit slower than we’d like. We just take it as it comes. Hathur is a decent place to be based. We are far enough out to have space but close enough to the main tehsil areas. Most of the folks who bring their crops here are neighbors or people from the nearby villages. We’ve known them for years. It’s a simple way of living and working. We just stay focused on the day's tasks and try to get home before it gets too late.
