Ganagapur Trimurthy Dattatraya Maharaj Farmers Producer Company Limited

Ganagapur Trimurthy Dattatraya Maharaj Farmers Producer Company Limited has a very long name, but we are just a group of people working out of Gulbarga. Our office is at H.No.1-946/1, and it’s under the care of Shri Vithal Rao, who is the son of Nawaloji Raopatil. It’s more like a family-run setup than a big business office. We have a lot of respect for the name we carry, which is tied to the local traditions here. Being in Gulbarga, we deal with a lot of heat and a lot of agricultural activity. The farmers come in from the nearby villages to talk about their crops and how to sell them through our collective. We have a few chairs and a lot of ledgers where we write everything down. It’s not a shiny place with glass walls; it’s just a solid building where we do our work. We spend a lot of time on the phone or just talking to people who walk in off the street. Everyone knows Vithal Rao’s family, so finding us isn’t too hard if you ask around. We aren't trying to be anything we aren't. We just want to help the local farmers get a bit more organized so they can have a better time of it. The work is mostly about coordination and making sure the records are right. It can be slow some days, and very fast on others when the crops come in.
