with the project the teams and representative of Virtucon has contacted the Riverina farmers for
conducting a preliminary study to identify the requirement and demands of crops based on
different geographical areas in the region.
1.4. Project description
This particular project aims at developing a mobile application that will be easy to use for
the framers and would help them in improving the productivity and performance of the crops. In
addition to that, the application will also assist in making future decision based on the demand
prediction in various regions. The mobile application, the framers would be able to track and
gain insight regarding the different information including the quantity and quality of products to
grow. Further, the application will also help in to get contact with the different wholesaler to sell
their crops. Through the application the farers and the wholesaler would able to log in, register
and enter their information to find the appropriate buyer and seller of grains. The wholesalers
will be further categorised in terms of geographic regions that would help the farmers to
understand the demand of crops in a particular region.
