Irawati Agro Farmers Producer Company

We are Irawati Agro Farmers Producer Company, and we operate out of Belgaon in the Vaijapur area. Sahebrao Madhavrao Gaikwad’s place at Gut No.150 is where we usually gather. It is right in the heart of our farming area. We focus on getting the most out of our land without spending more than we have. Farming here can be tricky because the water isn't always reliable. We spend a lot of time checking the wells and hoping the rains are enough. Our group is made up of local people who have lived in Belgaon forever. We do not have any fancy titles or big offices. We just have our fields and our tools. Sometimes we meet up after a long day of work to discuss which crops are doing well and which ones are struggling. It is a lot of practical talk about seeds and soil. We do not use big words or try to sound important. We are just trying to get our produce to the market without losing too much along the way. The roads around Vaijapur can be rough, especially for the trucks, but we manage. It is a simple life, mostly just working from dawn until dusk and then doing it all over again the next day. We like it that way, even when it is tough and the prices are low.
