About Farmer.in
Farmer.in is a free digital platform for India's farmers. Our goal is simple: give every farmer the same market information, scheme guidance and agronomy knowledge that traders and commission agents already have, in Hindi and English, at no cost.
Where Our Data Comes From
We believe farmers should be able to trust the numbers they act on, so every figure on this site is tied to an official source:
- Mandi prices are pulled daily from Agmarknet, the Government of India's official APMC market price system (data.gov.in).
- MSP figures come from the Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP) and Ministry of Agriculture notifications.
- Government scheme details (PM Kisan, PMFBY, KCC, subsidy rates) are based on the official scheme portals and ministry guidelines.
- Tractor and equipment specifications are taken from manufacturer-published data.
Wholesale prices vary by mandi, grade, arrival volume and the day, so the rates shown are indicative; always confirm the live rate at your local mandi before you sell.
How We Keep It Current
Prices and the build date refresh every day through an automated pipeline that reads the latest Agmarknet feed and rebuilds the site. Price-trend charts are built from genuine prices recorded over time, never simulated. When government schemes or MSP rates are revised, the relevant pages are updated.
Editorial Standards
Content is prepared and reviewed by the Farmer.in editorial team. We do not invent statistics, prices or ratings. Guidance on schemes, loans and subsidies is informational and points you to the official application route; it is not a substitute for professional financial or legal advice. For decisions involving money, we recommend confirming details with the relevant government office, bank or a qualified advisor.
