  1. What was the objective of the project and how much of it was achieved?

Agri Inputs supply chain in India is a fragmented and disorganized market inducing huge insufficiencies into the overall supply chain. Farmers are not able to acess to quality inputs, information and technology, thus limiting their choices. At the same time, suppliers have very limited traceability to their customers as the supply chain is not an organized market. Due to these inefficiencies, manufacturerers are being inefficient in their operations, distribution and marketing efforts. Data led insights and direct traceability provided by BigHaat digital platform would enable them to take accurate decisions and pass on the benefits from these efficiencies to farmers with reduction in input prices

 

  1. Give details of the cost of your solution and scope of scalability

Since it’s launch in 2015, BigHaat has reached over to 5 lakh farmers across India with it’s information, technology and marketplace offering. Given disruption in smart phone market and internet penetration, more and more farmers are able to access to mobile led innovations and this is a big enabler for BigHaat to scale up in a big way
