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.

आदरणीय मेरा सुझाव है कि प्रत्येक ग्राम पंचायत को इस एप से जोड़ें और ग्राम पंचायत के निर्णय, आय, व्ययों को इस पर उपलब्ध करवाये इससे किसान भाइयों की भागीदारी बढेगी ।
धन्यवाद

Sir, Along with cultivation of rice or wheat farmers should be encouraged to plant fruiting trees, medicinal trees and other beneficial trees beside their cultivable lands. Most trees like these can not be damaged by bad monsoon and good for environment too. Farmers should not leave extra blank space. These fruiting trees are also highly beneficial for other habitats. Tamarind and marigold plantation can prevent mosquitoes related diseases and so on there are several benefits from trees.

पराली की समस्या का एक मात्र हल यह है कि फसल काटने वाली मशीनों को ऐसा बनाया जाये की वह फसल को जड़ से या बिलकुल नीचे से काटे ।फिर न रहेगा बांस और न बजेगी बांसुरी ।
