Abstract

The main aim of the project is to provide overall support to the farmers and increase their margin of profit. In spite of agriculture being a non-recession occupation, many farmers are not able to reach the expected margin of profit. Reasons for that can be many. Having no prior knowledge about inflation in the market, farmers might end up growing the same crop in ample quantities in the market. Hence they reduce the margin of profit and sell the crop. The second reason being the traditional method followed in agriculture. Error due to human intervention cannot be ignored. Last reason being the role of intermediates. Farmers having inadequate knowledge about the price in the market, agree on a deal with intermediates. In order to reduce the risk, a farmer obtains a system has been proposed. The proposed system provides aids in multiple stages. In order to avoid inflation of crops, data about the quantity of all crops are aggregated and stored in a central database. This value acts as a threshold and warns before inflation. Change from traditional method to modern techniques in agriculture can be introduced with the concept of sensors. Multiple sensors are deployed in the farm field which gives timely and accurate readings to the farmer. Being in a remote location farmer is able to control his field. Farmers are being cheated by the intermediates due to lack of information about the price of crops. The system proposes a solution to this problem. Market price stores in the database are made available to the farmers. As a result, they are prevented from cheating.
