Abstract: Krisho is an innovative digital platform designed to transform India’s agricultural supply chain by enabling a direct farm-to-table marketplace. The system addresses the long-standing issue of middlemen exploitation, where farmers receive minimal profit while consumers pay inflated prices. By eliminating intermediaries, Krisho ensures fair pricing, increased transparency, and better income opportunities for farmers across the country. The platform integrates advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), real-time communication, and multilingual support to make it accessible to farmers of varying literacy and technical skill levels. AI-driven features assist farmers in pricing their produce competitively, predicting demand trends, and optimizing sales strategies. Real-time communication tools allow direct interaction between farmers and consumers, fostering trust and improving transaction efficiency. Krisho also emphasizes inclusivity by supporting multiple regional languages, ensuring that even farmers from remote areas can easily use the system. The platform provides a user-friendly interface where farmers can list their produce, manage orders, and receive payments securely. Consumers, on the other hand, benefit from fresh, traceable, and affordable agricultural products delivered direct from farms. In addition to economic benefits, Krisho contributes to reducing food wastage by streamlining the supply chain and enabling quicker transactions. It also supports sustainable agricultural practices by promoting local sourcing and minimizing transportation overhead. Overall, Krisho presents a scalable and impactful solution that empowers farmers, enhances consumer satisfaction, and strengthens the agricultural ecosystem, contributing to a more efficient, transparent, and equitable marketplace in Bharat.
