Pandori Yaha Aadivasi Farmers Producer Company Limited

Out here in Savrat, life revolves around the land and the seasons. We formed Pandori Yaha Aadivasi Farmers Producer Company Limited to bring the local farmers together. Our small office is at H. No. 233 in Navapur, right here in the Nandurbar district. It’s a simple place where we keep our records and meet up after a long day in the fields. Most of us are from the tribal communities here, and we’ve been farming these hills for as long as anyone can remember. We don’t have much in the way of big machines or expensive tools. Instead, we rely on each other. When one person needs help with their harvest, others show up. That’s just how we do things in Savrat. We started the company so we could have a bit more power when we go to sell our crops. It’s hard to get a good price when you’re just one person with a few bags of grain. Together, we can do a bit better. We aren't looking to become some huge business. We just want to make sure our village can survive and that our traditions stay alive while we earn a decent living. Sometimes the rain doesn't come, and sometimes it comes too much, but we just keep going. It’s a quiet life, mostly. If you come by the house, you’ll likely see us drinking tea and talking about the weather or the next planting cycle.
