2. Problem: Farmers are compelled to sell their produce to middlemen (commission agents) at lower prices. Meanwhile, customers seek fresh vegetables, but extended storage times cause the produce to lose its freshness. Additionally, high transportation costs and unsold produce further exacerbate the issue . @SIH Idea submission- Template We decided to unite the farmers and buyers by app building. Solution: After extensive brainstorming, we've concluded that a lengthy supply chain for a mobile application is essential, as it bridges the gap between consumers and farmers. To address the major issues in the farming crisis and foster a direct connection with consumers, we have decided to develop a solution within the app .

4. @SIH Idea submission- Template FEASIBILITY AND VIABILITY Almost everyone has mobile phone nowadays. Phone: Market Price: Not everyone is aware about market prices Don’t get what they are worthy of Mostly farmers sell their crops in govt. mandis Profit: Sell:

5. Buyers, especially large corporations, might invest in rural infrastructure like storage facilities, roads, and cold chains to facilitate the movement and storage of produce. 1 Stable income Solves frustrating delays in receiving payments for products sold. 2 Improved access to finance. Financial institutions are more likely to provide loans to farmers engaged in contract farming, as the assured contracts reduce the risk of non-repayment. 3 Trust on sellers Provides rating system that helps buyers to trust sellers 4 Infrastructure Development @SIH Idea submission- Template IMPACT AND BENEFITS
