Pushpadanteshwar Mahila Farmer Producercompany Limited

Our little group is set up in Nandurbar, specifically in the Waghale area. We are based out of Shri Bhila Ataram Garkwad's place in Waghaletal. It is a group for the local women farmers around here. We gave it a long name, Pushpadanteshwar Mahila Farmer Producer Company Limited, but we are just neighbors. We decided that if we joined up, we could handle the farming business much better than if we were all on our own. Nandurbar is where we have lived all our lives. The work is mostly out in the sun, making sure the plants are growing like they should. We don't have any polished managers or big bosses. We just have our meetings at the C/O address when we need to figure things out. Sometimes we have a lot of crops and sometimes the season is thin. We handle the collection and the transport ourselves mostly. It’s a lot of talking to drivers and checking the bags. We aren't trying to be some big corporate entity. We just want to make sure the work we do in the fields actually pays off. It’s a practical way to live. Most of us have kids and houses to look after too, so we keep the business side of things simple. Being in a rural spot like Waghale means we have to rely on each other. That is exactly what this company is for. Just us ladies working the land together.
