Dax Aquaculture Private Limited

Out here in Olpad, things are a bit different than in the main Surat city. We are located in Jay Jalaram Complex, Unit A-1. Dax Aquaculture is basically all about the water and what grows in it. Most of our day is spent thinking about tanks and feed. The complex is right there on the main road in Olpad. It’s a dusty place sometimes, especially when the wind kicks up from the fields. We started this because we wanted to work for ourselves. It’s not a corporate gig at all. We wear boots most of the day because of the water. My friend handles the technical side of the aquaculture, and I do the rest. We have a few guys who help with the heavy lifting at the complex. It’s a practical business. We don't spend money on fancy furniture. We’d rather spend it on better equipment for the ponds. The drive out here from Surat takes some time, but it’s worth it for the space. We see a lot of other farmers and growers around Jay Jalaram. Everyone kind of knows everyone else’s business. We just try to stay focused on our own work. Sometimes the crops don't do what you expect, but that’s farming for you. We just take it day by day. It’s a quiet life compared to the city. We like it that way. No big city noise, just work and water.
