As Indian agriculture relies heavily on rain and weather conditions, meteorology should invest on getting better weather prediction technology as available in developed countries. Weather related warning and information can then be given on mobile.

e-Mandi is the solution. We need to create a real time market in a server where businessmen/consumers can buy products and thus a price is decided as the share market operates. Farmers can register their mobile number in the database through a govt appointed local volunteer/employee. Real time prices will be sent via sms to farmers. If the farmer wishes to supply, he can confirm supply to nearest godown from where the supplies are taken at economic intervals and supplied to the customer.

Install a computer with interned connection at a public place In each and every village of the country. The touch screen interface should be easy to use and pictorial and audio-visual, so that even the illiterate people can access that. The computer would connect them to a team of experts, who will suggest them ways to solve there problems. Arrangements should be made so that farmers across the country can network among themselves and discuss various issues.

First of all most of our farmers don't know about the facilities given by government, So in order to educate them provide some subsidized mobiles which is well equipped to provide proper information about agriculture, facilities given by government, e-banking etc., There should be a full information about which soil is suitable for particular product and which fertilizers to be used in what quantity. If we integrate all these information in these subsidized mobile then it will be very useful.
