Sattur Tnsrlm Women Agro Producer Company Limited

Our office is at number 21 on North Street in Kumara Reddiapuram. We are a group of women who work the land around Sattur. It started because we realized we were all facing the same problems with our crops and selling them. Most of us have small plots of land and it’s hard to get any attention from buyers when you're on your own. So, we put our resources together. It’s a very local thing. You’ll usually see a few of us at the North Street spot talking about the latest harvest or what seeds we should buy for the next season. We do all the work ourselves, from the planting to the paperwork. It’s not a polished business by any means. There are plenty of mistakes and things we are still learning about running a company. But we know our plants and we know how to work hard. The agro business is tough for women, but we manage somehow. We aren't looking to become some giant firm; we just want our families to be okay at the end of the day. When you come by Kumara Reddiapuram, you’ll see the fields where we spend most of our time. This company is just our way of making sure that effort doesn't go to waste. We share what we know and try to make things a little bit easier for the next person. It's just honest, hard work and a lot of patience to get the job done right.
