Kisaan Suvidha is a marketing platform that brings together the Agricultural Produce Marketing committee (APMC), farmers and agents under one marketing platform operating as a mobile application. Farmers can see the live auction of any commodity and follow price variations (maximum, minimum and average price) of any commodity on a daily basis throughout the year. Farmers can only be present at ARPMC during the aution time and when weight measurement is required. Through the SMS facility provided to the app users, farmers receive auction price and total amount to collect from the agents. The agent can track the activity like commodities sold and bought by him/her. The agents also track the details of Gate Pass, auctions, and fees collection. The APMC agent can extract information about goods damages and calcualtes the total village level commodity and revenue generates. On the same app, the commodity merchants can analyse the ups and downs of all the APMC in the state, and get information of total fees paid by him. The Government bodies can view the total stock of any commodity at an APMC and review village, sub-district, district wise production.
