How produce moves from the farm to the buyer: harvest, grading, collection centre, mandi or online market, and payment to the farmer.
Drawing diagram…
Farm-to-market flowchart: the farmer harvests, produce is sorted and graded at a village collection centre (A, B, C grades), then either sold through the mandi auction (e-NAM) or directly to a registered buyer on an agri marketplace app. The winning bid is accepted, produce is transported in cold or regular trucks, weighed at delivery, and payment is sent to the farmer's bank account by direct transfer.

How satellite and drone imagery plus field sensors become crop health alerts and advice for farmers.
The states of an automated drip irrigation controller: idle, scheduled watering, moisture-based watering, rain delay and fault handling.
How a farmer checks crop prices across nearby mandis and books a sale: live prices, transport cost, best net price and booking.
