Banaburu Mahila Kisan Producer Company Limited

Banaburu Mahila Kisan Producer Company Limited is down on Sonahatu Road. We are at Mohan Mahto’s place, he’s the son of Tujuwa Mahto. This is in Bundu, which is part of the Ranchi district here in Jharkhand. We are a group of women farmers. It’s a bit of a mouthful, our name, but it says what we are. We work together to try and get better results for our crops. It is a local thing, mostly just neighbors and people from the nearby villages. We don't have a fancy office building. We just use the space we have on Sonahatu Road to meet up and plan things. It’s often a bit noisy with everyone talking at once, but we get things decided. Bundu is a good place for this kind of work. We aren't trying to be some big national company. We just want to make sure the farmers here have a way to sell their stuff and get what they need. It’s basic work, nothing too complicated. We spend a lot of time out in the fields and then come back to the office to settle the books. It is a very human way of doing business. We know each other's families and we know the land. That's how it works for us. Just a group of women trying to make a living from the ground, dealing with the daily realities of farming in Bundu.
