Morappur Women Farmer Producer Company Limited

We are the women from V Pudhur Village. Our group is called Morappur Women Farmer Producer Company Limited and we work out of No.3/89. This is in the Vengadadharaalli Post area. Our village is small and everyone is involved in farming one way or another. We decided to start this company because we wanted to have more control over our work. At No.3/89, we have a simple room where we gather. We bring our children sometimes and they play while we talk about the harvest. We grow things like ragi and pulses. It is physical work and our hands are always rough from the fields. We don't have a lot of money for big advertisements or fancy offices. We just have our community. We try to learn from each other about better ways to plant or how to save water when the season is dry. Sometimes we have disagreements about how to spend the little bit of money we make, but we always figure it out. It is a local effort. We are not trying to change the world, just trying to make V Pudhur a little more stable for our families. The paperwork is the hardest part because none of us went to school for business. We just do our best with what we know and hope the crops grow well.
