Chhanhi Agro Farmer Producer Company Limited

Chhanhi Agro Farmer Producer Company Limited is run out of Rajiv Singh’s place in Chhanhi, Sultanpur. Sultanpur is a place where agriculture is the main thing everyone does. We decided to form this company because we wanted to have a collective voice when it came to selling our produce. It is a lot of work to keep everyone organized. We don’t have a big staff or a fancy office setup. Most of the time, Rajiv is just handling things from his home or we are meeting out in the village square. We deal with all kinds of agro products, whatever the season brings. It might be mustard one month and something else the next. We have to keep track of what everyone is growing and try to find a buyer who will give us a decent price. It is not a polished business with a marketing budget. We rely on the fact that we live here and know the farmers personally. Sometimes the trucks don't arrive on time or the market prices drop suddenly, and we have to figure out what to do. It’s a stressful life but it’s what we know. We don’t make big promises. We just try to get the work done as best as we can. There’s always more to do tomorrow, so we just keep at it without much fuss.
