Pasunuri Shankaraiah Poultry Farm & Feeds

Out here in Goparajpally, life moves a bit differently. We are located at Survey Numbers 36 and 37 in the Valigonda area. If you come by Pasunuri Shankaraiah Poultry Farm & Feeds, you will hear the birds long before you see the gate. It’s a lot of hard work, honestly. The mornings start before the sun is even up. We have to check the feed and make sure the water is running right for the chickens. It’s dusty and sometimes it smells like a farm, but that is the reality of it. We don't have a marketing team or anything like that. Just some local guys who know how to handle poultry. The roads out here in the village can be a bit rough, especially when the rains come. But we manage. We spend most of our time out in the sheds or moving bags of feed around. It’s physical work that leaves you tired by the evening. My family has been doing this for a while now. We know the land and we know the birds. It’s not a glamorous job, but it feels right to be producing something useful. People from the nearby villages stop by often. We usually have a tea and talk about the weather or the price of grain. That’s how we do things here in Valigonda. It is just honest farm work every day of the week.
