Saptarsi Farmer Producer Company Limited

We are over here in Bhudabar, which is part of Sonepur. People around here know the place well, especially since it is near B.M. Pur. The office sits at Bhagirathi Panda’s place. It isn't a big fancy building or anything like that. We started Saptarsi Farmer Producer Company Limited because the farmers in this area needed a way to get things done together. Most of us have been working the land for a long time. It gets hard doing it all alone, so we figured out how to pool our resources and tools. Sonepur is a good place for farming, but you have to know the soil and the seasons. Sometimes the rain doesn't come when it should. We spend a lot of our days talking to the local growers about what they need for the next planting. If you come by the 767018 area, you will see a lot of green fields and people working. Bhagirathi keeps the paperwork and everything organized. It’s just a group of us trying to make the farming life a bit more steady. We don't have a big marketing team or anything like that. Mostly it’s just handshakes and meetings under the trees or in the small office. We handle the seeds and whatever else comes up during the harvest. It’s practical work. There isn't much more to it than that. We just live and work right here in the village. It is home for us and it keeps us occupied.
