Agmarknet and e-NAM Enhance Market Transparency for Farmers
The Indian government has upgraded its Agmarknet Portal to Agmarknet Portal 2.0, expanding its reach to 4,367 mandis, enabling real-time price information for farmers. This technological upgrade, coupled with the Agmarknet 2.0 Mobile App, allows farmers to make better marketing decisions by accessing mandi data directly from their phones. Additionally, the e-National Agriculture Market (e-NAM) scheme has added 1,522 mandis, supporting real-time price transparency and facilitating fair price discovery through online bidding and e-payments. These initiatives collectively enhance farmers' access to market information, aiming to promote better pricing and marketing strategies.
