Chhanvar Agro Farmer Producer Company Limited

This place is over at Jaraila in Mirzapur, specifically at Saroja Devi’s house, number one. We are registered as Chhanvar Agro Farmer Producer Company Limited, which sounds like a lot, but really it's just a group of us trying to figure out the best way to handle our harvests. Dealing with crops in this part of the country is never straightforward. Some years the rain is good and other times we are just waiting and hoping for the best. We set this up because individual farmers have a tough time on their own. By coming together here in 231313, we can share the load a bit. It’s not a polished operation. You’ll see sacks piled up and people talking about seed prices or the latest tractor repairs. We spend a lot of time just sitting around discussing what to plant next or how to get a better deal at the market. It’s mostly about practical things like that. Nobody here wears a suit or anything. We are usually covered in dust or mud depending on the season. Working out of a residence means things stay informal and friendly. If someone needs to talk, they just walk up to the door and ask for us. We don’t have a website or fancy brochures. It is just about the work we do in the fields and making sure everyone gets their fair share at the end of the day.
