AgMart - Mandi App

AgMart stands for ‘Agri Market Analysis & Trade Facilitation Service’ started in 2016 with an objective of providing Market Intelligence (market price information) for farmers. Based on feedback received from thousands of farmers and marketers across the country, we upgraded the application with advanced features & data visualization tools built on artificial intelligence to provide accurate market intelligence to people dependent on farming and supply chain business. This is a proprietary data analysis service by Mr. Lokesh Kakarla, M.Sc Agri, Raichur, Karnataka. Raw data for the analysis is taken from agmarknet.gov.in

a. Market Intelligence:

- Market Intelligence is an important exercise for farmers to take informed decisions before selling their crop. Thankfully, APMC Markets which facilitate auctions to ensure better ‘price discovery’ are treasure trove of market intelligence and backbone of India’s agricultural supply-chain.

- ‘AgMart Mandi Rates' app has been providing daily post-market reports since 2018 to keep farmers updated with latest market wise commodity rates and arrivals, which can be analyzed to explore ‘price advantage’ at alternative markets.

- Over the years, AgMart evolved as a ‘Platform for Agri Markets’ which collect post-market data reported by APMCs and perform data analysis with artificial intelligence tools to extract comprehensive and meaningful insights like…

o Overview of Reported Markets, Arrival Volume & Turnover Across Multiple Markets

o Comparison of Price Difference Between Alternative Markets

o Understanding Influence of Arrival Volume on Market Rate

o Historical Charts for last 3 years

o State wise Ranking on Performance of APMC Markets

o Punctuality of APMC Markets in Submitting Price Reports

b. Market Linkage with Harvesting Calendar:

o India have 2500+ APMC Markets in various agro-climatic zones, some receive surplus & some receive short supply of commodities depending on season, which create price difference between markets.

o Harvesting Calendar is a ‘Crop Centric Platform’ and ‘Market Centric Solution’ for APMC Markets, Traders, Commission agents or Aggregators to display pre-harvest crop information of their clients(farmers) to their customers(buyers) and enable pre-harvest booking.

o AgMart help farmers & buyers compare markets based on seasonal price variations & connect them to traders & commission agents of respective APMC markets for win-win deals

o Our platform enable intermarket trading between surplus & deficit regions for balanced distribution of commodities, which is necessary for controlling price volatility.

Disclaimer / Service Limitation:
