SMART KISAN: A Mobile App for Farmers' Assistance in Agricultural Activities

Farmers in India face various challenges during the crop cycle, including a lack of knowledge about the latest technologies, practices, and disease identification and management. Additionally, farmers often struggle to find appropriate storage facilities and determine fair market prices for their produce. To address these issues, a digital solution is proposed in the form of a mobile application for farmers. The application includes six features: a technology library, plant disease identification and diagnosis, an automated chatbot for answering questions, weather alert information, information on nearby warehouses and market prices for produce. The proposed application has been developed based on the results of a survey conducted with 50 farmers from Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh states using a Google form. The app is designed to provide farmers with the necessary tools to address their problems independently, including multilingual support.
