Information and communication technology is becoming an important aspect of Agriculture sector. Till now most of IT initiatives by government were focused on website and training. In the current scenario, the mobile phones are becoming effective way of delivering information and this medium has been used by DAC&FW to develop KisanSuvidha Mobile App. The app is designed primarily for farmers keeping their requirements in mind. The app is engineered to provide all information at a common place that a farmer or agriculture stakeholder in agriculture sector may require. On 19th March 2016, app was inaugurated by Hon’ble Prime Minister during ‘KrishiUnnatiMela’ in New Delhi. As on today, an approximate 3 lakh active users are using this app. The App is available in Hindi, English, Punjabi, Tamil and Gujarati Language.

The app has very simple interface with focus on providing information on six essential areas of farming:-

1. Weather details
2. Dealers
3. Market Price
4. Plant Protection
5. Agro Advisory
6. Kisan Call Centre (KCC)

The app can be downloaded from Google Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.cdac.bharatd.agriapp and it is also available on mkisan.gov.in

Kisansuvidha is designed as a ‘Single window’ concept which enables farmers to get relevant information with the click of a button. Many more new features are being incorporated into this app so that it becomes more useful for farmers and related stakeholders.

We invite suggestion from all to improve this app further and share other useful apps for farmers.

पहले सहकार की संकल्पना अच्छी थी परंतु कुछ स्मार्ट लोगोनें सामान्य जनोंके विश्वासका गलत फायदा लेकर धीरे धीरे प्राथमिक लागतको हि खा डाला और किसानोंकी हालत बिगाड दी।

कृषि उद्योग का संघटीत उद्योग क्षेत्रमें रूपांतर
महाराष्ट्रमें कृषि व्यवसाय ऐसा है की जिसमें बडे पैमानेसे बेरोजगारीका निर्मूलन करनेकी क्षमता है। लेकिन हाल में यह उद्योग किसानोंको और संवेदनशील विषय होनेके कारण विद्यमान सरकारको समस्यारूप हो गया है। यह समस्या या एक अवसर मानके सरकारने इसमें ध्यान दिया तो कृषि व्यवसाय सरकारी आय पर संकट होनेके बजाय उत्पन्नका श्रोत बन सकता है।

This krushi trading app will be connected and open to kisan. Gradeing system will grade food grain and transportation level will transport the food grain to its location. Traders, kisan, transport, gradind system, all are connected through banks, hence cashless and secure transactions. Every one will get their money at right time, and at right price. And govt will get right revenue From it. If this idea will be implemented, it will create miracle, and great revenue to govt.
