E Farming and Agriculture

Project Title

E Farming and Agriculture

Project Area of Specialization Artificial IntelligenceProject Summary

E-Agriculture & Farming Web App help farmers to ensure greater profitability through direct farmer to supplier and farmer to farmer communication .This service boosts business communication and brings transparency in the system .This innovative site allows for good Farmer, Retailer, Farming experts and Supplier communication. It allows farmers to login and communicate to respective dealers. When dealers publish an advertisement or offer, the respective farmers get notified via SMS message. The farmers may also submit their grievances and complaints to respective dealers or authorities using their farmer login on a separate complaints page and authorities will get access to that page regularly using their login id and passwords. Also there will be also a proper farming expert system that will help farmers to guide and aware them from latest farming tips. & in case when experts will not available at any time there is an alternate AI base system (Using Data Mining Algorithms) that will guide farmers on the basis of key words or symptoms entered.

In this modern world of internet almost every sector, field is operating and dealing online through internet as it connects the whole world .So one of the very important reason why we will use this idea is to resolve the issues facing by farmers in the sector of agriculture and manage all the affairs regards farming and agriculture  ,E-Agriculture & Farming is actually  an online user friendly platform which focus on conversion of manual farming and agriculture affairs totally into online through which any farmer can deal hisher farming affairs for example directly communicate with suppliers and retailers without involvement of  intermediate agents and deal among them with complete satisfaction  ,Secondly communicate with government authorities for complaining purpose  , Experts will available at any time for any kind of farming tips, .And very important one is saving a lot of precious time and headache of dealing among suppliers ,farmers, retailers and government authorities  manually ,

Project Objectives

This web project provides following features:

• Separate login areas with appropriated functionality for farmers, administrators, dealers/ retailers and Experts
• A separate page where only farmers can post complaints and only assigned administrators can read and edit this page.
• Pages where dealers and retailers may post their ads p,products and notifications.
• Farmers are notified of these notifications via SMS whenever new products or ads are published.
• An effective GUI so that rural people may easily use the service.
• Can be over for multiple villages to communicate and deal with each other.
• When Experts are not available there should be proper system that will guide farmer and on the basis of symptoms or tag words used by farmer.

Project Implementation Method

• • Brief description how research will be conducted

Initially our team identify the major issues face by farmers in agriculture and farming sector specially in our own country (Pakistan).We also compare the our traditional agriculture system with emerging computerized technology where time is consider one of the precious factor & also every operation and every sector is move toward automation and make is online for the ease of handling and saving time .So considering these major factors our team is trying to resolve these issues with the help of very simple Web App namely E-Agriculture & Framing .

• • Experimentation

In order to check weather this app will operate perfectly in future we run this app locally on our PC’s 3 to 5 times  using templates available on internet .But the ultimate App will contain no templates instead we will use our designing using CSS 3 and Bootstrap 3

• • Experimental setup

                           Software Requirements:

• Windows XP, Windows 7 Windows 10(ultimate, enterprise)
• SQL 2008
• Visual studio 2010 /PHP Strom/Atom/Notepad++
• XAMPP/MAMPP or any other virtual server

Hardware Components:

• Processor – i3
• Hard Disk – 5 GB
• Memory – 1GB RAM
  • Theoretical studies

For the theoretical knowledge 90% we take help of internet for studying different courses involved in this project i.e PHP, JavaScript, HTML 5, CSS 3 , Bootstrap 3 .Specially for PHP which is the backbone of our project we took help of one the best learning website “Udemy” other courses we studied from YouTube and many other online platforms  .Remaining 10% include our course subjects related to our project i.e Data base management system

• • Results expected and method of the analysis

With the help of this Web App we are expected to resolve the major issues as we discussed earlier i.e removing intermediate agents between farmers, retailers & suppliers and intelligent expert system to guide and aware farmers from latest tips and tricks of farming. Also expected result of our project is saving both cost and time. For the complete analysis of our project we use method of DRY RUN of complete code .After Dry Run is completed code is considered to be ready to perform full and final operation.

Benefits of the Project

Benefits

• Farmers can directly contact and deal retailer or suppliers by online searching facility.
• Farmers may submit their grievances online.
• Totally online Import and export system.
• Proper Expert system for latest farming tips & techniques.
• At any when Experts will not available alternate AI based expert system will automatically active that will operate on the basis of tag/key words or symptoms entered by farmers. 
• Time and cost efficient.
• php7 techniques are use in this project which is memory efficent and require less bandwidth
• This system can be used in developing countries to enhance farmer, supplier, retailer & farming expert’s communication thus eliminating unnecessary intermediary agents involve in farming import and export. We can enhance this project on international level and we can involve expertise as well to guide farmers and aware them from latest tips and tricks related farming. In future the farmers well able to directly linked to international markets to sell their products so that they will get 100% of their hard work.
• This project will help farmers to directly deal and sell their products in different cities to different customers without involvement of any intermediate agents. That will highly reduce corruption factor involve during import & export between farmers, retailers & suppliers through intermediate agents. This will in result help farmer to get 100% profit of their hard work. We can commercially deploy this web application on government level, the farmer could use it to enhance their business on international level as well through government .Deployment with proper maintenance of this project will highly increase the scalability and stability of any Agriculture & Farming System. This will also help to expand farmers business to all over the country & also on international level .

Limitations

• Verification of the users cannot be done online. They have to first get themselves verified by visiting before using the system.
• It requires a large database and memory.
