Shubhyog Agro Farmer Producer Companylimited

We operate out of Samadhan Bapurao Kale’s place in Dahigaon. It’s a small village in the Bhokardan area of Jalna. We are just a group of local farmers who decided to join up. It’s better to buy supplies and sell our crops as a group than trying to do it all by ourselves. The office isn't much to look at. It’s just a room with some old cupboards and a few chairs where we sit and talk about the harvest. We spend most of our time out in the fields anyway. Jalna can get very dry, so we spend a lot of time worrying about water. We share tips on how to save water and which crops are doing well in the heat. It’s a community thing more than anything else. We all know each other’s families and we’ve lived here forever. When someone has a problem with their tractor or their crop, we try to figure it out together. We aren't corporate people. We wear dusty boots and work with our hands. Sometimes the paperwork gets a bit confusing, but we have a young man from the village who helps us with the computer stuff. We just want to make a living and keep our land healthy for the next lot. It’s steady work and it keeps us out of trouble. We’re just regular people trying to do right by our farms and homes.
