Why agriculture website is needed 

Some important steps are discussed below mentioning the need for farming websites for farmers.

Aware people about your farm crop

With the help of websites one can easily promote their crops in local markets, states, own countries and worldwide. If a person lives in India and grows huge amounts of fig fruits, burans, tomato, apple etc can easily sell the crop in Toronto, Canada, Sydney or in other countries where the crop is in demand. 

If there is a high demand for hybrid tomatoes in Sydney or Singapore then how do these people know that you are growing the best quality tomatoes in India. To spread the information among them you need to promote your crops on an international level then only you will get orders for tomatoes from different countries.

To get a good number of orders you have to show your product/crop to the world. Tomato is a product and you can sell it through a dynamic website which is easy to create.

Get instant payment through websites

Get instant payment through your websites. A payment gateway like razorpay can be easily installed in the websites through which a person living anywhere in the world can purchase your product online at any time. Once your product is purchased you can deliver the crop to the person, organization or company. 

This model is already working for example, Amazon and Flipkart are doing exactly the same. You can also sell your crops through Amazon or Flipkart but you have to give a huge commission of almost 30% which is not worth it. While selling the same product or crop from your own website you don’t have to give any commission to anybody and 100% profit will be yours.

Promotions

First start promoting the crops on your website by creating local content then start creating the content according to the nation and finally start targeting the world. This is the basic step of promoting anything from scratch.

Websites are helpful in getting clients from other countries and one can export the crop at a higher price to different nations.

Need of agricultural marketing through websites

Farm website is cheaper than banners

Websites are cheaper than banners, TV advertisements, newspaper advertisements and all of the types of advertisements. Websites are one time investment that can be used for a long life for promoting the concerned product. Whereas tv, newspaper advertisements are temporary and you have to pay again for promoting the same product next time. Banners cannot be placed everywhere or you have to print banners in large quantities to place them in more places resulting in high cost advertisement.
