Abstract
Agriculture plays an important role in the development of the economy of a country. It provides lots of opportunities to innovate and apply the innovation. Trading in agriculture from the farmer to the consumer goes through a lengthy process where farmers negotiate an amount for the generated yield with a middleman. The middleman has a set fee of brokerage on yield from farms based on quality. This process consumes significant time that can deteriorate quality while the farmer has no return of investment. In order to overcome these issues, an E-Commerce solution can be found which can be transparent enough to make sure farmer gets the return of investment with profits and is used without a middleman (broker) to sell the yield. There is no proper solution that exists for a transparent trading between farm and consumers. This paper highlights the importance of E-Commerce in Agriculture with less/no brokerage and that also helps a farmer to invest in ways that increase the yield.

This paper presents E-Commerce solution for Agriculture. Existing system for agriculture includes middleman to seller and an existing e-commerce solution which is built for selling all types of goods. In order to overcome the flaws, E-Commerce specific for agriculture with continuous feedback from the farmer and the customer can be implemented.
