Dronagiri Farmer Producer Company Limited

You can find Dronagiri Farmer Producer Company Limited over in Rajapur. We are set up at Anjanabai Shankar Shelkar’s place. It’s a simple setup in the Sangamner area of the district. We don't have a fancy signboard or anything like that. It’s just a home where we gather to talk about the farming business. Being in a small village like Rajapur means everyone knows everyone. We started this company to help our local farmers get a better deal. It’s mostly about sticking together. Some days we spend hours just sitting on the porch discussing which crops will do well this season. It’s a lot of trial and error really. The soil in Sangamner can be tricky depending on the rain. We don't have a team of experts in suits, just us locals who have had our hands in the dirt for years. It’s honest work and we don’t try to make it sound like more than it is. Sometimes we struggle with the transport because the roads aren't the best, but we find a way. We’re just trying to make sure our families and the other farmers around here can keep going. It’s not a fast-paced life, but it’s ours. We take things one day at a time and try to stay positive even when the weather isn't helping us much.
