Abstract:The agricultural sector forms the back
bone of India’s economy, employing nearly half of the
country’s workforce and contributing significantly to
its GDP. Yet farmers often face challenges in accessing
fair markets and optimal prices for their produce.
Farmers often face challenges in accessing direct
markets, leading to exploitation by intermediaries.
This paper explores the development of a Mobile Ap
plication that connects farmers directly to buyers and
retailers, addressing the inefficiencies of traditional
agricultural supply chains. Key features such as a
dedicated farmer community for collaboration, live
negotiation capabilities, and voice message support
distinguish this platform from existing solutions in
the Indian market. With the aid of these innovations,
the platform aims to enhance market transparency,
empower farmers, and foster a more equitable agri
cultural ecosystem.
