Godaparisar Farmers Producer Company Limited

Godaparisar Farmers Producer Company Limited is run from Sachin Suryabhan Shinde’s place at Gat No. 115 in Kandalas. It’s a quiet village spot but we stay pretty busy with the farm work most of the year. A few of us around here decided we needed to work as one group rather than everyone struggling on their own. We mostly talk about the land and whatever is currently growing in the fields. Some days the water levels are low and we have to figure out how to share what’s left in the wells. Sachin’s house serves as our main spot to meet up and plan for the next season. It’s not a big corporate building, just a regular home where we keep our records and talk business over tea. You won’t find any fancy chairs or a lobby here. You will mostly find us in our dusty work clothes because there is always something that needs fixing or planting. We try to help each other out with getting seeds and tools so we don’t get overcharged by the big shops. It is mostly about survival and making sure our families are okay when the year ends. The weather in this part of the country can be very tough, so having this group helps take the pressure off a little bit. We are just local people who know this ground well. If you stop by, you’ll see how we work—just simple, honest labor in the heat.
