The D-Krishi app is an innovative solution designed to facilitate the efficient allocation and distribution of seeds, micro-nutrients, and seed treatment chemicals to genuine cultivators, including tenant farmers, across Andhra Pradesh. Through its integration with Rythu Bharosa Kendrams (RBKs) located at the village level, the app ensures transparency and accessibility in agricultural resource distribution. Its key features are:
- Tailored Seed Allocation: Village Agriculture Assistants record farmers' requirements at RBKs for major crops like Groundnut, Paddy, and Bengal Gram. The app calculates seed entitlement automatically based on the farmer's cultivation area.
- Digital Payment Integration: Farmers pay the non-subsidy portion seamlessly through a digital payment system. An OTP-based system ensures secure and verified transactions.
- Consolidated Demand Management: Confirmed seed demands are consolidated and shared with seed suppliers. Stock is strategically positioned at accessible village locations for efficient distribution.
- Streamlined Distribution: RBKs serve as the distribution hubs, where farmers receive their allocated resources promptly, reducing delays and ensuring equitable access.
Over 15 lakh farmers benefit from the D-Krishi app every season, enjoying a hassle-free process to secure subsidized seeds and other agricultural inputs. By leveraging technology, the app not only supports sustainable farming but also strengthens the agricultural ecosystem in Andhra Pradesh.
