Success Story
Empowering Farmers through Collective Seed Value Chain Development
The Journey of Poohar Farmer Producer Company Ltd., Morigaon District
Introduction
Poohar FPC, registered in Morigaon district, is a shining example of how unity and collective action can transform agriculture. With a vision to strengthen the seed value chain and create sustainable income opportunities, Poohar has emerged as a role model for farmer empowerment in Assam. It also demonstrates effective convergence between government schemes, extension agencies, and smallholder farmer organizations.
Background Challenges
Before Poohar’s intervention, farmers faced multiple hurdles:
- Poor-quality seeds leading to low yields.
- Dependence on seeds from outside the state, often unsuitable for local conditions.
- Exploitation by middlemen and lack of reliable markets.
- No access to seed processing facilities.
- Low seed replacement rates and limited varietal diversity.
- Weak climate preparedness.
These constraints made farming less profitable and highly uncertain.
The Journey
- Formation: Initiated in 2015 under NABARD Producer Fund; formally registered as a company in 2019.
- Capacity Building: Farmers trained by AAU, IRRI, APART, ATMA, and KVK on seed production and mechanization.
- Membership: Over 1,000 farmers from 21 villages, including women and youth.

- Produced over 500 MT of certified seeds of improved and climate-resilient paddy varieties in the last 3 years.
- Established a 2 MT/hr capacity seed processing plant under APART Project.

- Set up a Custom Hiring Centre (CHC) to promote mechanization and provide rental services of modern farm machinery to marginal farmers.

- Achieved a turnover of ₹72 lakhs in 2024–25.
