Barvi Agro Farmer Producer Company Limited

In the village of Karwele, which is in Murbad, you will find us at House Number 100. That is where Barvi Agro Farmer Producer Company Limited is based. Thane district can be very different depending on where you are, and here in Murbad, it is all about the land. We are a small group of farmers who decided to team up. The house is where we keep our tools and sometimes meet to discuss the prices of what we are growing. It is a local thing. We know the fields around Karwele like the back of our hands. Some years the rain is too much and the rivers rise, and other years we are praying for a drop. We don't have a big marketing team or anything like that. It is just us and our families. We grow what the soil allows. When we have a meeting, it is usually over some tea and we talk about the problems we are facing with the pests or the transport. The transport is the hardest part because the roads can be rough around here. We just want to make sure that our kids can still farm this land if they want to. Being a producer company helps us get better seeds and maybe a little more respect when we sell our harvest. It is just everyday life for us here in Karwele and we keep moving.
