Design and Development of KisanSeva: an Android based application for Farmers

Abstract: This application which is named as 'KisanSeva' will certainly bring a major transformation in the ways which are both known and unknown to the farmers. Most of the farmers in Maharashtra are still using traditional methods for farming due to which they are facing problems like loss of soil quality, fewer yields from the farm, unpredictable weather, lack of knowledge about pests, unnecessary expenditure on pesticides etc. This project focuses on improving the quality and quantity of the goods produced by the farmers by providing them with new & precise information about the important aspects of farming. There are few apps related to farming available in the market but this app will provide extra features like organic farming, methods of water management & expert suggestions. This app will also provide a small platform for the farmers to sell their produce. Keywords: KisanSeva, Leave, soil quality, pests, unnecessary expenditure on pesticides.
