Agri Help Line
Objective:
The objective of the project is to design an
agriculture portal which provides solutions to farmers and agriculture
students. The farmers can know about government schemes and market information.
Existing system:
The present systems are inadequate in
providing information and advices to the needy farmers and students. Often
farmers are compelled to rely on local information sources and count on their
own experiences regarding crops and markets. Soil analysis is not done scientifically,
with any authorities available to authenticate data.
Proposed system:
The proposed system is a web based
application through which farmers and students can access the required
information. (The system maintains details of government loans and insurance
schemes. The system helps farmers to make decisions on market and prices.
Farmers can access salt and fertilizer analysis for a particular region). The
system provides solutions to queries and problems faced by farmers. The system
also helps students to access the information for their research and academic
purposes.
Users of the system:
