Manushka Shetkari Producer Company Limited

We are located at number 18 in Gangewadi. That’s in the Ashti area of Beed district. Most people around here call it Bid. We are a small group of farmers who got together and called ourselves Manushka Shetkari Producer Company Limited. Life in Beed can be tough, especially when the rains don't show up on time. We figured that if we work together, we might have a better chance of getting things done. There's about a dozen of us who really keep things moving. We aren't doing this for some big corporate dream. We just want to make sure our crops get to where they need to go without too much trouble. Our office is just a simple room in the village. You won't find any air conditioning or fancy chairs here. We usually meet up in the evenings after we finish in the fields. We talk about the price of goods and who needs help with their harvest. It's a very local thing. Everyone knows everyone in Gangewadi. We just try to support each other. Sometimes the paperwork is a bit much, but we get through it. We are just normal people who know how to grow things in this soil. It's not always easy, but it's what we do. If you happen to be passing through Ashti, you’ll find us near the main village area. We’re just trying to keep the farming tradition going for our kids and the community.
