Senjumta Farmers Producer Company Limited

Senjumta Farmers Producer Company Limited is based out of Yanthamo Village, which is close to the Doyang Hydro Project in Wokha. Janbemo Lotha looks after the records and other stuff from his house there. We are a small team of local folks trying to keep our farming activities organized. It’s a lot of work being out in the sun all day, but having a group makes it a bit easier to handle the logistics. The road up here isn't always the best, especially when the rains start coming down hard. We don't have any big goals of taking over the world or anything like that. We just want to make sure the stuff we grow in Yanthamo actually gets to where it needs to go without too much trouble. Most of us have been doing this since we were kids, so it feels natural. We don't use fancy words or have a big corporate board. It’s just some neighbors talking over the fence and deciding what to plant next. Sometimes we meet up near the Doyang area to talk things through. It’s a quiet life for the most part, apart from the harvest season when everyone is busy and a bit tired. We don't put on any acts for people. We are just farmers who decided to put a name on what we were already doing anyway. It’s a basic life, but it works for us. We just keep our heads down and worry about the soil and the rain.
