What is a Producer Company?
India is an agriculture-driven economy, and a Producer Company is a legally recognised body formed by farmers or producers to carry out activities related to primary produce. It focuses on production, harvesting, procurement, grading, processing, marketing, export, and distribution of agricultural goods.
A Producer Company can be formed by:
⇒ Minimum 10 or more individuals (producers), or
⇒ Two or more producer institutions, or
⇒ A combination of both
The objectives of a Producer Company are defined under Section 581B of the Companies Act, 1956 (now governed under the Companies Act, 2013 provisions relating to Producer Companies). Its primary goal is to enhance income, provide better market access, and improve the overall welfare of its members.
Activities Undertaken by a Producer Company

⇒ Manufacturing or supplying agricultural machinery and equipment to members
