Vyankatesh Farmer Producer Company Limited

We are located in Keshav Nagar, specifically at property number 351 in Risod. Vyankatesh Farmer Producer Company Limited isn’t a corporate office with air conditioning. It’s a place where we keep our tools and our records. Most of us are from around here in the Risod Taluka. We spend our days out in the fields, usually getting our boots muddy or dusty depending on the month. We don't have a marketing department. We just have farmers who know how to grow things. We decided to join up because the market is tough for one person to handle. By working together, we can share the costs of things like transport and fertilizer. It’s a practical arrangement. We don’t use any fancy language to describe what we do. We plant seeds, we pray for rain, and we hope the prices are okay when we harvest. Sometimes the crops fail and it’s a bad year. Other years are better. That’s the life we chose. We meet up at the property in Keshav Nagar to discuss our plans for the next season. It’s usually a lot of tea and talk about the weather. We keep things simple because that’s what we know. We are just honest people trying to make a living from the land. There’s nothing more to it than that. We just keep going, day after day, because that's the only way to get through.
