Abstract ~ This project introduces a mobile application designed to streamline interactions between farmers and clients, enhancing agricultural business operations. The platform utilizes a modular architecture, separating functionalities into Rancher and Client modules. Secure access is ensured through OTP-based email verification upon registration. Farmers can input and update comprehensive crop details, including crop name, variety, planting and harvest dates, growth stage, and yield production data. Crucially, the application integrates climate and weather data relevant to the farmer's location, providing valuable context for crop management and market predictions. Clients can browse listings, purchase produce, and communicate directly with farmers through the application. A built-in chatbot assists users with FAQs, crop information, and basic price negotiations, further facilitating communication. This dynamic interaction, coupled with real-time updates and transactions, fosters a more efficient and responsive agricultural marketplace. Beyond transactional capabilities, the application serves as a business management tool, enabling data-driven discussions and analysis of transactions, operations, and crop performance, empowering both farmers and clients to optimize strategies and improve operational efficiency.
