Bhergaon Agro Organic Producer Company Limited

Our company is over in Village No 2, Singrimari. It’s part of the Bhergaon area in the Udalguri district. If you’re looking for the Panery police station, we are in that general vicinity. Bhergaon Agro Organic Producer Company Limited is basically a collective of us locals. We all live around here and have been farming these lands for generations, just like our fathers did. We decided to come together to make things a bit more official and organized. Our office is just a simple building in the village. It’s nothing fancy, just a place to keep our records and meet up to talk. The weather in Darrang can be quite intense, with heavy rains that sometimes flood the lower fields and cause a lot of worry. We have to be very careful with our planting schedules. We focus on organic methods, which takes way more time and effort than the regular way of doing things. There’s a lot of weeding and natural composting involved in the daily routine. We don’t use those harsh sprays you see on the big commercial farms. It’s a lot of manual labor, and our hands are usually dirty and our boots are muddy. But that’s just how it is here. We talk a lot about the soil and the crops over our midday meals. Everyone has an opinion on the best way to do things, which makes for some loud lunches. It’s a community effort, really. We just want to make sure our village can sustain itself for the future.
