Bhuvanendri Womens Farmer Producercompany Limited

We are based over in Navalnagar, which is a small spot in the Dhule district. Most of us here are women who have been working the land for as long as we can remember. We decided to get together under the name Bhuvanendri Womens Farmer Producercompany Limited to try and make things a bit more manageable for everyone involved. We use Bhaidas Appa Thorat’s place as our main point of contact. It’s not a big office or anything, just a house where we keep our papers and meet up when the sun isn't too hot. Farming in Dhule is hard work, and doing it alone is even harder, so we share what we know. We talk about the seeds we use and how the weather is looking for the next month. Sometimes we just sit and complain about the pests or the price of things, but it helps to be together. We don't have a big marketing plan or a mission statement written on the wall. We just want to get our crops sold and make sure we can plant again next year. If you walk by the post office and ask for us, someone will show you the way. It’s a very simple life we lead here, mostly focused on the dirt and the rain. We aren't trying to be fancy, just practical. Every day there is something to do in the fields, and we just keep at it.
