Harshyogfarmer Producer Company Limited

Our place is at G No 37 in Sangavi 1, which is part of the Karmala area in Solapur. It’s a pretty rural spot and that’s where we do all our work. We are a small group of farmers who decided to register as a company to make things a bit more official. Solapur can be a very dry place, so farming here is always a struggle for water. We spend a lot of time talking about how to manage the little bit of water we have. We mostly grow jowar and other crops that can handle the heat. Our office is just a room at the farm where we keep our tools and a few ledgers. We don’t have any fancy signs or big offices. We are just regular people who wear dusty clothes and work from sunrise to sunset. We started this because we thought we could get a better deal on seeds if we bought them together. It’s not a complicated idea, but it takes a lot of effort to coordinate. We don't have any big plans to expand or anything, we just want to survive the next season. It’s a tough life but we’re used to it. We don't use big words or make promises we can't keep. We just do our best with what we’ve got here in Sangavi. It's mostly about the weather and hoping the crops grow well enough to pay the bills.
