Bhagwanbaba Farmers Producer Company Limited

You can find us over at Nageshwadi in the Patoda area. Beed is a tough place for farming sometimes, with the water being what it is. We set this up at Vishnu Vilas Thorave’s place because we needed a central point for all the local farmers to come and talk. It’s not a polished business. It’s more like a gathering of neighbors who are all trying to figure out the best way to handle their crops. Bhagwanbaba is a name we respect, so we put it on the company. Our address is right there in the village, 414204. We spend most of our mornings checking on the plants and the afternoons worrying about the market rates in Beed. It’s a lot of back and forth. Sometimes the roads are dusty and the trucks are late, but that’s just life here. We don’t have a website with fancy photos. We just have our names and our work. People around Patoda know us. We deal with whatever the season brings, whether it’s pulses or grains. It’s mostly about making sure we don’t lose out when it’s time to sell. We share the costs of things and try to help each other out with the heavy lifting. It’s a practical way to survive as a farmer in this district. We keep our boots dirty and our records in simple notebooks. Our spot is at Nageshwadi, Beed, 414204.
