Intelligent distribution of fresh agricultural products in smart cities

Abstract

Socioeconomic fabrics of India are mainly dependent on agriculture. In recent
times, as farmers are not appropriate in deciding what crops are best fit for the land
using traditional and non-scientific methods, it has become a serious problem where
approximately 58 percent of the population is involved in farming. Sometimes farmers
failed to choose the right crops based on the soil conditions, sowing season, and
geographical location. As a result farmers are seen committing suicide, quitting the
agriculture field, moving towards urban areas for livelihood. To resolve this issue, our
research work has given a system to guide the farmers in crop selection by considering
all the factors like sowing season, soil, and geographical location.
