Rungja Farmers Private Limited

You can find us in Rungja Village, not far from Dirang. N. Phaichulupa is the one who helps us stay organized with the paperwork. We are a private company, but really it's just a bunch of us from the village working the soil in West Kameng. We grow a variety of things depending on the time of year. Farming in the hills is different than down in the plains, and it takes a lot of patience. We started this because we wanted a way to sell our goods as a single unit. It saves us time and a bit of money on transport. Sometimes we get together to talk about the seeds we should buy for the next season. It's a small operation. We don't have a big staff or fancy trucks. Mostly it’s just the same people you see at the local market. Life here in Dirang moves at its own pace, and we like it that way. We try to keep our costs low so there's more left for the people doing the digging. The mountains are beautiful but they make the work hard. We carry things on our backs when we have to. It's not the easiest way to make a living, but it's ours. We don't use any fancy talk or marketing tricks. We just show up every day and do the work. If the crop is good, we are happy. If not, we just try again next time.
