Santalpur Farmers Producer Company Limited

Santalpur Farmers Producer Company Limited is located in the village of Lodra. We are easy to find because we are with Chaudhari Dunngarbhai Bhagvan. Lodra is a small place in the Radhanpur and Santalpur area. This part of the country can be quite tough for farming because the ground is dry and the weather is often very harsh. Most of the people around here are farmers who have been struggling with the same problems for years. We decided to form this company so we could work as one group instead of everyone fighting on their own. Our office is just a simple space in the village. It’s where we store some of the records and meet up to talk about the water situation or the cost of seeds. There are no fancy signs or big posters. It is just a place for us to gather. Usually, you will find a few of us sitting there in the afternoon talking about the fields. The roads around Lodra can get very dusty, especially when the wind picks up. We don't have a big corporate structure. It is more like a group of neighbors trying to help each other out. We handle the paperwork for the government and the banks so the individual farmers don't have to worry about it as much. It is a practical arrangement for a practical way of life. We just take things one day at a time and hope for a good season for everyone.
