Raikhy Rice Mill

Down here on Samrala Road, things move at their own pace. Raikhy Rice Mill is tucked away in Village Kalal Majra, which is a quiet enough place for most of the year. Once the rice starts coming in though, the whole area wakes up. We spend most of our time out in the yard or checking the machines inside the sheds. It’s loud, and the smell of dry husks is always in the air around the village. We’ve been at this location for a long time now. Most people in Village Kalal Majra know us quite well. We aren't trying to be the biggest place around, just consistent with our work. The Samrala Road can get a bit crowded with carts and trailers, but we manage to keep things moving. Most days involve a lot of checking the moisture in the grain and making sure the bags are stacked right so they don't tip. It gets incredibly hot under the tin roofs in the summer, but that’s just part of the job. We don’t have a website or anything complex like that. If someone wants to talk to Raikhy Rice Mill, they usually just stop by the gate and yell for one of us. We’ve got a small crew, mostly guys from around the village who really know the work. We keep the equipment running as best as we can. Sometimes things break down and we spend the whole afternoon with a wrench in hand. It’s honest work, and it keeps us busy.
