Farmers often face a lot of problems selling their produce. Sometimes they do not get the right price, sometimes they do not get buyers. In order to overcome this problem, the government started an online portal e-NAM in the year 2016. It is a type of online market which is very popular among farmers and agricultural traders. Recently some new features were added to this portal, with the help of which farmers can sell their produce directly from home or farm. Recently, various mandis of states have also been added to this portal.
Let us know that this portal, known as National Agricultural Market (E-NAM), has recently been connected to 177 new mandis. After this, the total number of mandis in e-NAM now stands at 962. Earlier the number was 785.
Any farmer can register himself on this portal. Farmers can upload their produce for sale online to the mandis registered in the e-NAM and traders can also bid for the lots available for sale under the e-NAM from any location.
