Kumongrima Farmer Producer Company Limited

Kumongrima Farmer Producer Company Limited is based out of Barengapara, which is right down by the border in West Garo Hills. You can find us at Silseng Sangma's place in Koinad. Being in this part of Meghalaya means we are a bit far out, but the farming here is what keeps us going. We are a collective of farmers who wanted to have a better way to manage our crops and get them to the market. The 794103 area has its own challenges, especially with the weather and the roads, but we have lived here all our lives so we are used to it. The company is just a way for us to stick together. We don't have any polished speeches or big goals other than just doing a good job with the land. A typical day for us starts early, usually before the heat gets too bad. We talk about seeds, fertilizer, and who is taking their stuff to town. It’s very practical and down to earth. Silseng’s place serves as our main point where we meet up and sort things out. We don't really think of ourselves as business executives or anything like that. We are just farmers trying to do right by our families and our community here in West Garo. It is a tough life sometimes, but we wouldn't want to be doing anything else.
