Vidhya Rice Mill

Vidhya Rice Mill is located in Jadcherla. If you live around here, you probably know the sound of our machines. It is a loud place. The smell of raw rice is everywhere once you step inside. I have been working here in Jadcherla for a long time. We take the paddy and process it. There are always big mountains of husks outside. The workers move quickly with the heavy sacks on their backs. It is a dusty environment, so we all wear old clothes. In Jadcherla, agriculture is a big deal, so we stay busy during the harvest months. During the off-season, we spend time fixing the belts and cleaning the rollers. The building is large and open to let the air circulate. Sometimes the birds fly in and try to get to the grain. We have to be careful about that. It is not a polished operation. It is honest work that involves a lot of sweat. I spend my hours checking the quality of the grains as they come out. People from all over the area bring their crops to us. We don't have fancy brochures. The mill just stands there and does its job. It is a part of the landscape in Jadcherla. We start when the sun comes up and keep going until the last load is done. That is just how life goes at Vidhya Rice Mill. It is just rice and machines.
