Karmyogi Kisan Producer Company Limited

Karmyogi Kisan Producer Company Limited operates out of Rehi in Lalganj. We are based at C/O Mrs. Sakuntala Devi’s place. The name "Karmyogi" refers to the idea of working hard without overthinking things, and that’s pretty much how we run things. We are all kisans, or farmers, who have lived in Lalganj for years. We decided to form this company because we were tired of being pushed around by middle-men. Now, we handle things ourselves. It’s a lot more work, but it feels right. Mrs. Sakuntala Devi helps us keep things in order at the Rehi address. We don't have a lot of equipment or a big budget, so we make do with what we have. Most of our days are spent checking on the crops and talking about the next harvest. It’s not a glamorous life. There is a lot of dirt under our fingernails and we are always tired at the end of the day. But we are building something for ourselves here in Rehi. We aren't interested in sounding corporate because we aren't. We are just a group of neighbors trying to get a fair price for the stuff we grow. We don't use fancy terms; we just talk about seeds, rain, and the local market. It’s a slow process, building a company from nothing, but we’re doing it one day at a time, right here in Lalganj, and we plan to keep it that way.
