Better Market Reach

The current mandi infrastructure covers a much larger area—460 square kilometers per mandi—compared to the ideal 80 square kilometers. This vast coverage makes it difficult for farmers to reach mandis efficiently, restricting their ability to participate in the market and get fair prices for their produce.

Stoxfarm aims to bridge this gap by establishing satellite centers closer to farmers. By decentralizing the marketplace, farmers can sell their produce at convenient locations instead of traveling long distances to centralized mandis. This approach enhances market accessibility, reduces transportation costs, and potentially increases earnings by connecting farmers with a larger customer base.

Beyond improved market reach, this model could also promote better price discovery, faster transactions, and reduced post-harvest losses. By empowering farmers with localized trading hubs, Stoxfarm can help create a more efficient and sustainable agricultural ecosystem.
