Why Agriculture? Potential of agricultural growth to reduce poverty is four times greater than any other

sector(UNDP survey, world bank).

Poverty is a multidimensional phenomenon and lack of access to information and communication can exacerbate its causes.

Effective agricultural extension system improves productivity by helping them to use of resources.

Feeding global population(approx. 9 billion in 2050) will require 70% increase in overall food production, smallholder agriculture – plays a much more effective role.

Existing problems Nearly 5 million abled youths are out of country for foreign employment. 2 millions in

last five years.

Relying on a patchy network (local middlemen, a handful of progressive farmers, and local shop owners) to get solution of critical problems which have impact on their decision making.

Social Pressure, because agriculture sector is still regarded as a profession of uneducated people.

Access to the financial opportunity/subsidy for a start-ups.

Inefficient weather forecasting mechanism.

Lack of marketing/post harvesting/processing knowledge.

Virtuous Circle of mobile and agriculture

Accessibility:  Mobile wireless networks are expanding as technical and financial innovations widen coverage to more areas.

(80 lakh people uses internet(NTA). Ncell has coverage among 90% of population and NTC has

coverage across the country which includes data as well.)

Affordability: Prepaid connectivity and inexpensive devices, often available second hand, make mobile phones far cheaper than alternatives.

(JiaYu G2F: 4.3inch touch screen, 3G, Wi Fi, GPS, 8mp camera. Launched May 2014 Cost US$81.)

Appliances: Mobile phones are constantly increasing in sophistication and ease of use. Innovations arrive through traditional trickle-down effects from expensive models.

At the relentless pace of Moore’s law, summer 2019 cost of same specs of

what was considered superphone in 2010 would be $10 (including marketing & profit)

Applications: Applications and services using mobile phones range from simple text messaging services to increasingly advanced software applications that provide both livelihood improvements and real-time public services.

Opportunity
