Krantiveer Khajya Naik Farmers Producer Company Limited

Our company is Krantiveer Khajya Naik Farmers Producer Company Limited. We operate out of Mothe Kadwan in the Navapur taluka. This is in the Nandurbar district. The address says Pune-425426 at the end for some reason on the official papers, which is a bit confusing since we are definitely up here in the tribal belt. We work out of Bandhu Pachya Valvi’s place. It’s a real grassroots operation. A group of us farmers got together to form this company so we could have more say in how our crops are sold. We mostly deal with the local grains and whatever else is growing in the hills around here. Life isn't easy out this way. The roads aren't always great and we have to travel a lot to get things to the market. But being a producer company helps us stay together. We don't have a fancy building or shiny computers. We mostly meet outside or in the small office space we have. Everyone here knows everyone else. We named the company after Khajya Naik because he’s a hero in our history. We just want to make sure the farmers in Navapur get a fair deal for the hard work they do in the sun. It’s about community more than anything else for us. We spend our time talking to the local guys about their harvests. There is a lot of corn and some pulses grown around here.
