Sindhukavi Kavirayar Farmer Producer Company Limited

Our office is at 1/151 Na on the Main Road in Melamaruthappapuram. It’s right in the heart of Tirunelveli. We named the company Sindhukavi Kavirayar to honor the local culture. We are just a bunch of farmers who got together. Life in Tirunelveli revolves around the land and the rivers, and we are no different. Our daily routine is mostly about checking the fields and seeing what the market is doing. We don't have a big marketing budget or any fancy brochures. What we have is a small room with a fan and some ledgers where we keep track of everything. We meet up on the main road to talk about the water levels and the cost of seeds. It’s a lot of small talk that turns into business decisions. We are all neighbors, so we trust each other. Sometimes we have to travel to the city to sort out the legal stuff, which we don't much enjoy. We prefer being outside where the air is better. We are trying to make sure the small farmers in our group get a decent price for their hard work. It’s not easy, and there are many obstacles, but we keep pushing. We aren't doing this to get rich quick. We just want a steady life and to keep our community going. It’s just how we were raised.
