Krishi Samannay Farmer Producer Company Limited

We are located in Bonpas, which is in the Purba Bardhaman district. Specifically, you can find us at Mondal Parabonpas, near Raj Kumar Ghosh’s place. Our group is called Krishi Samannay Farmer Producer Company Limited. Purba Bardhaman is known for its farming, so there are a lot of us doing this kind of work every day. We thought that by coming together, we might have a better chance of handling the costs of seeds and fertilizer. It is a very practical setup. We don't have a lot of money to spend on fancy things, so we just use what we have in the village. Most of our members are neighbors who have known each other for decades. We spend a lot of time discussing the paddy fields and what the water situation looks like. It is not a fast-paced business like you see in the cities. Things move with the seasons here. We have to be patient. Sometimes we have meetings under the trees or at someone's house to decide on the next steps. It is mostly about survival and trying to get a fair deal for the stuff we grow. We aren't experts in business, but we know our soil and our crops. We just want to keep the farms running so the next generation has something left to work with. There is always a lot to do, and we just do it together.
