Ministry of Agriculture inaugurates Kisan Rath Mobile app
In order to ease the difficulties that the farmers are facing, amid lockdown, the Center recently launched Kisan Rath Mobile app. Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar launched transport aggregator mobile app- Kisan Rath - which will bring together 5 lakh trucks and 20,000 tractors on mobile platform for transporting farm produce to markets from farm gate.
The Agriculture Ministry has launched Kisan Rath Mobile App to facilitate transportation of food grains and perishables during lockdown.
“During lock down, farmers are finding it difficult to book tractors and trucks for transporting their produce. This app will help them bring their commodities to mandis and other market yards,” said a senior agriculture department official.
A couple of days back, Tomar had launched an all India agri transport call centre to facilitate interstate movement of perishables during lock down.
“Both these services will help farmers reach out to buyers and get competitive prices for their produce. This mobility was needed to safeguard income of farmers,” the official said.
