Kapaih Organic Farmer Producer Company Limited

We started Kapaih Organic Farmer Producer Company Limited in Khousabung Village. It is located in the Moirang area, under the local police station and post office there. It is a small place, and most of us have lived here our whole lives. Farming is what we know, so starting this company felt like the natural thing to do for the people in the village. We don't really use big offices. Mostly, we meet up at different houses or in the fields to talk about the crops. The village is quiet, and we like it that way. Being in Moirang, we are used to the weather and how it affects what we grow. We focus on the organic side of things because it’s what works best for our land here. There are a lot of challenges, like getting transport sorted or dealing with the rain, but we manage. Everyone knows everyone in Khousabung, so if there is a problem, we just walk over and talk about it. Our paperwork is kept simple. We aren't trying to be some big city firm. We just want to make sure the farmers in our village get a fair shake. It is a lot of manual work and long days, especially when it’s time to harvest. But we are happy to be working for ourselves in our own village. We keep things running as best as we can with the resources we have available.
