Savitribai Phule Farmer Producer Company Limited

We are based in Somthana, which is in the Chikhali taluka of Buldhana. Our little office is at House Number 66. Savitribai Phule Farmer Producer Company Limited is a name we chose because we have lived here in Waghapur and Somthana all our lives. Most of us here have small plots of land. By coming together, we try to make things a bit easier on ourselves when it comes to buying seeds or selling what we grow. It is a very local thing. We don't have any corporate offices or anything like that. Just a room where we keep our registers and meet up. The roads in this part of Buldhana can be a challenge, but we get the work done. We talk about the weather, the soil, and the prices every single day. It’s not a glamorous life. There is mud on our boots and dust on our clothes. We are just a group of farmers who think that working together makes more sense than trying to do everything alone. We don't make big speeches or promises. We just look at the fields and do what needs doing. Somthana is a small place, and we are proud to be part of the farming community here. We just keep moving forward, one season after another, and try to keep the business side of things simple enough for everyone to understand. It’s just us doing our best.
