INTRODUCTION

Introduction about Topic:

Online shopping or e-shopping is a form of digital trade which lets in consumers to without
delay purchase goods or services from a dealer over the Internet using a web browser.
Alternative names are: e-internet-shop, e-shop, e-store, Internet store, internet-keep, web-
save, online shop, on-line storefront and digital save. Mobile trade (or m-trade) describes
shopping from a web retailer's cellular optimized on line site or application software
program.

An on line keep inspires the bodily analogy of purchasing products or services at a bricks-
and-mortar store or purchasing centre; the technique is referred to as commercial enterprise-
to-patron (B2C) online purchasing. In the case wherein a business buys from any other
commercial enterprise, the technique is called commercial enterprise-to-commercial
enterprise (B2B) on-line purchasing. The largest of these on line retailing companies are
Alibaba, Amazon.Com, and eBay.
Retail success is no longer all about physical stores. This is obvious due to the boom in
retailers now presenting online save interfaces for consumers. With the growth of online
buying, comes a wealth of latest market footprint insurance possibilities for stores that may
accurately cater to offshore marketplace demands and provider requirements.

History
Michael Aldrich, pioneer of online shopping inside the 1980s.

English entrepreneur Michael Aldrich invented online buying in 1979. His device connected
a changed domestic TV to a real-time transaction processing laptop through a home smart
phone line. He believed that videotext, the changed domestic TV generation with a easy
menu-pushed human–computer interface, was a 'new, universally relevant, participative
conversation medium — the first because the invention of the smartphone.' This enabled
'closed' corporate records structures to be opened to 'out of doors' correspondents now not
just for transaction processing but additionally for e-messaging and statistics retrieval and
dissemination, later referred to as e-enterprise.
His definition of the new mass communications medium as 'participative' [interactive, many-
to-many] changed into basically one of a kind from the conventional definitions of mass
verbal exchange and mass media and a precursor to the social networking on the Internet 25
years later.
In March 1980 he went directly to release Redifon's Office Revolution, which allowed
customers, clients, sellers, vendors, suppliers and provider groups to be connected online to
the corporate systems and allow commercial enterprise transactions to be finished
electronically in real-time.
During the Nineteen Eighties, he designed, synthetic, offered, set up, maintained and
supported many on-line purchasing systems, the use of videotext era.[5] These structures
which additionally provided voice reaction and handprint processing pre-date the Internet
and the World Wide Web, the IBM PC, and Microsoft MS-DOS, and were hooked up
especially within the UK by huge corporations.
The first World Wide Web server and browser, created via Tim Berners-Lee in 1990,
opened for industrial use in 1991. Thereafter, subsequent technological innovations emerged
in 1994: on-line banking, the outlet of an internet pizza keep by means of Pizza Hut,
Netscape’s SSL v2 encryption widespread for comfortable statistics switch, and Intershop's
first on-line shopping machine. Immediately after, Amazon.Com released its online
shopping website online in 1995 and eBay turned into additionally delivered in 1995.[6]

International E-Commerce facts

Statistics display that in 2012, Asia-Pacific improved their worldwide income over 30%
giving them over $433 billion in sales. That is a $sixty nine billion difference among the
U.S. Sales of $364.66 billion. It is envisioned that Asia-Pacific will growth via every other
30% within the 12 months 2013 putting them beforehand by way of a couple of-third of all
worldwide ecommerce income.
 Customers
Online customers ought to have get entry to to the Internet and a valid technique of charge in
order to complete a transaction.
Generally, better ranges of schooling and private profits correspond to more favourable
perceptions of buying online. Increased exposure to era also increases the chance of growing
favourable attitudes in the direction of new purchasing channels

In a December 2011 look at, Equation Research surveyed 1,500 on line customers and
determined that 87% of tablet owners made on line transactions with their tablet gadgets for
the duration of the early Christmas shopping season

Logistics
Consumers find a made of hobby by way of journeying the website of the store without delay
or by way of searching amongst opportunity companies the usage of a purchasing seek
engine.

Once a particular product has been observed on the website of the seller, maximum online
stores use purchasing cart software to permit the patron to build up a couple of items and to
regulate portions, like filling a physical buying cart or basket in a traditional save. A
"checkout" process follows (persevering with the physical-store analogy) in which price and
delivery information is collected, if important. Some stores permit customers to enroll in a
permanent online account in order that some or all of this records handiest wishes to be
entered as soon as. The purchaser often receives an email affirmation as soon as the
transaction is whole.

Less sophisticated stores can also depend on consumers to cell phone or e-mail their orders
(even though complete credit card numbers, expiry date, and Card Security Code,[9] or
financial institution account and routing quantity must not be commonplace through
electronic mail, for reasons of safety).
Payment
Online consumers commonly use a credit card or a PayPal account which will make
payments. However, some systems enable customers to create bills and pay by means of
opportunity manner, which includes:

1) Billing to cell telephones and landlines

2) Cash on transport (C.O.D.)

3) Cheque/ Check

4) Debit card

5) Direct debit in a few countries

6) Electronic money of diverse sorts

7) Gift cards

8) Postal money order

9) Wire switch/shipping on price

10) Invoice, mainly popular in some markets/countries, which include Switzerland

11) Bit coin or different crypto currencies

Some on line shops will now not accept global credit cards. Some require each the
purchaser's billing and delivery deal with to be inside the equal united states as the on-line
store's base of operation. Other online stores allow customers from any u . S . To ship
presents anywhere.

The economic a part of a transaction may be processed in actual time (e.g. Letting the client
recognise their credit card was declined earlier than they log out), or can be executed later as
a part of the fulfilment method.
Product delivery
Once a charge has been widely wide-spread, the products or services may be delivered inside
the following approaches:

Downloading/Digital distribution:

The method frequently used for virtual media products including software, music, films, or
pictures.

Drop delivery:

The order is surpassed to the producer or 0.33-birthday party distributor, who then ships the
object directly to the patron, bypassing the retailer's physical place to store time, money, and
space.

In-shop pick-up:

The purchaser selects a nearby keep the usage of a locator software program and choices up
the brought product at the chosen region. This is the method frequently used inside the bricks
and clicks commercial enterprise version.

Printing out, provision of a code for, or e-mailing of such gadgets as admission tickets and
scrip (e.g., present certificate and coupons). The tickets, codes, or coupons may be redeemed
at the correct bodily or on-line premises and their content reviewed to confirm their eligibility
(e.g., assurances that the right of admission or use is redeemed at the best time and location,
for the proper dollar amount, and for an appropriate range of makes use of).

Shipping
The product is shipped to a client-detailed address.

Will call, lCOBO (in Care Of Box Office), or "at the door" pickup: The customer
selections up pre-purchased tickets for an occasion, along with a play, carrying event, or live
performance, either simply earlier than the event or earlier. With the onset of the Internet and
e-trade web sites, which permit clients to shop for tickets on line, the recognition of this
carrier has elevated.

Shopping cart structures

Simple systems permit the off-line administration of merchandise and classes. The keep is
then generated as HTML files and portraits that can be uploaded to a web space. The
structures do now not use an internet database.[citation needed]

A excessive-quit answer may be offered or rented as a stand-on my own application or as

an addition to an organisation aid planning software. It is generally installed at the company's
web server and might integrate into the prevailing supply chain so that ordering, payment,
transport, accounting and warehousing may be automated to a big extent.

Other solutions allow the user to check in and create a web save on a portal that hosts more
than one stores simultaneously.[citation needed]

Open source buying cart applications encompass superior systems along with Interchange,
and off-the-shelf solutions consisting of Magento, nop Commerce, OS ecommerce, Shop
gate, PrestaShop, Shopify, Zen Cart, Open Cart.[13]

Commercial systems can also be tailored so the store does not need to be produced from
scratch. By the use of an current framework, software program modules for diverse
functionalities required via an internet save may be adapted and mixed.[citation needed]

Design
Customers are attracted to online shopping now not only because of excessive levels of
comfort, however additionally because of broader selections, aggressive pricing, and greater
access to statistics. Business groups are trying to find to provide online purchasing no longer
handiest because it is of a whole lot lower price in comparison to bricks and mortar stores,
however also as it offers get admission to to a world wide marketplace, will increase
customer fee, and builds sustainable abilities

Customer wishes and expectancies aren't the equal for all customers. Age, gender, revel in
and culture are all crucial elements. For instance, Japanese cultural norms might also lead
users there to experience privacy is particularly critical on shopping sites and emotional
involvement is surprisingly critical on monetary pension’s websites. Users with extra on line
enjoy focus more on the variables that directly influence the venture, even as newbie users
focus on know-how the statistics.

To boom online purchases, corporations must use sizable money and time to outline, layout,
develop, test, implement, and keep the internet shop. Truly said, it's far easier to lose a
customer than to advantage one. Even a "pinnacle-rated" internet site will now not succeed if
the organisation fails to exercise not unusual etiquette which includes responding to e-mails
in a timely fashion, notifying customers of issues, being sincere, and being accurate stewards
of the customers' records. Because it is so important to eliminate mistakes and be extra
appealing to on line shoppers, many net shop designers look at research on client
expectancies.

User interface
An automated online assistant, with capability to decorate person interface on purchasing
sites. The maximum critical factors determining whether clients go back to a internet site are
ease of use and the presence of user-pleasant capabilities. Usability trying out is critical for
finding issues and enhancements in an internet web page. Methods for evaluating usability
include heuristic evaluation, cognitive walkthrough, and consumer checking out. Each
approach has its own traits and emphasizes distinct aspects of the person experience.

In a conventional retail shop, clerks are usually to be had to answer questions. Some on-line
stores have real-time chat capabilities, but most depend upon e-mails or phone calls to
address client questions.

Price and choice

One advantage of purchasing on-line is being able to quick are searching for out offers for
objects or offerings furnished through many one of a kind carriers (although a few nearby
engines like Google do exist to help clients find merchandise for sale in nearby shops).
Search engines, on-line rate comparison services and discovery buying engines may be used
to appearance up sellers of a specific products or services.

Shipping costs (if applicable) reduce the fee advantage of online merchandise, though
depending at the jurisdiction, a loss of sales tax can also make amends for this.

Shipping a small range of gadgets, mainly from some other use, is lots extra pricey than
making the larger shipments bricks-and-mortar outlets order. Some shops (especially those
promoting small, high-cost items like electronics) provide free transport on sufficiently
massive orders.

Another major advantage for retailers is the capacity to swiftly transfer providers and
companies with out disrupting customers' purchasing enjoy.

METHODOLOGY

Statement of the Problem:

Raising productivity per unit of land will need to be the main engine of agricultural
growth as virtually all cultivable land is farmed. All measures to increase productivity
will need exploiting, amongst them: increasing yields, diversification to higher value
crops, and developing value chains to reduce marketing costs. Reducing rural
poverty through a socially inclusive strategy that comprises both agriculture as well
as non-farm employment: Rural development must also benefit the poor, landless,
women, scheduled castes and tribes. Ensuring that agricultural growth responds to
food security needs. Enhancing agricultural productivity, competitiveness, and rural
growth. Facilitating agricultural diversification to higher-value commodities:
Encouraging farmers to diversify to higher value commodities will be a significant
factor for higher agricultural growth, particularly in rain-fed areas where poverty is
high.

Need and Relevance of Study:

Information and Communication Technology and Mobile Apps drive

Global Agriculture. The entry of mobile and cloud-based apps ,We have come
to a time in a civilization when raw materials and resources are becoming ever
more scarce. When we take into consideration the pollution, increased
emissions, soil degradation, and water depletion, we know the sustainability
challenges that loom in the horizon are real. But into this same scenario, we
lately have the entry of 3G mobile network worldwide. Although agriculture and
mobile apps technology may appear disconnected on the face of it, there is
already an increasing amount of evidence to suggest that making use of
mobile and cloud-based applications not only addresses these sustainability
challenges but also creates financial value for both large agriculture-based
companies and smallholder farmers.

The introduction of such mobile technology and portable, wireless

devices has led to the creation of innovative services and applications that are
used within the agricultural chains in both developed and developing countries.
The nature of the adoption of these technologies in these two markets does
show some variation. In developed countries, mechanization is more advanced
and the agricultural labor force is significantly smaller.

The host of applications of mobile technology in agriculture includes

market information such as trading facilities, weather information, peer-to-peer
learning and financial services such as payments, loans and insurance.

Spreading agricultural related information to farmers in the poorest

communities are made easier with the help of cloud computing, integrated IT
systems, online education and proliferation of mobile phones. One of the
benefits of such connectivity and information flow is that it helps farmers
make better land management decisions.
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

1) To know how the E-commerce sites are sell the products

2) To study the benefits of selling agriculture products using E-portals by farmers

in Bengaluru

3) To find the ways to educate farmers to use E- portals to sell their agriculture
products

4) To study the role of AGRICULTURE APPs

5) To understand the use and convenience of AGRICULTURE APPs.

METHODOLOGY OF RESEARCH

clearly, intended to establish priorities, develop operational definitions and improve the final

research design. Exploratory research helps determine the best research design, data-

collection method and selection of subjects. It should draw definitive conclusions only with

extreme caution. Given its fundamental nature, exploratory research often relies on

techniques such as:

secondary research - such as reviewing available literature and/or data informal qualitative

approaches, such as discussions with consumers, employees, management or competitors

formal qualitative research through in-depth interviews, focus groups, projective methods,

case studies or pilot studies.

SAMPLING
Area sampling, when a cluster happens to be a geographical area like a district, town or

village, etc.

CHAPTER -4
OUTCOME OF THE STUDY

VALUE CHAIN ANALYSIS OF AGRICULTURE APPS

1) AgriApp comes with two essential functions—offerings and m-commerce. Under its
carrier characteristic, the utility presents four utilities—package deal of practices (POP); chat
with expert; motion pictures; and information. The POP carrier includes records on 83
specific kinds of crops, proper from sowing till harvesting to pest and illnesses manipulate
and many others. Users can also offer any multimedia document to the scientists, who then
examine the farmer’s queries and supply answers in conjunction with tips.

2) Through the motion pictures, the customers can get right of entry to some ninety three
films about crop cultivation, animal husbandry, farming the usage of new devices and
machines and progressive agricultural ideas. This enables farmers understand agricultural
evolution and new technologies. The news section publishes news applicable to agriculture,
agro-generation and the marketplace.

3) The m-commerce capabilities like an e-commerce kart that lets in users to buy
merchandise on line directly. It has over six hundred-peculiar products of pinnacle brands of
agro chemicals and fertilizers. User can buy any product in any amount both with the aid of
paying coins on shipping or online.

4)Agriculture, each time we examine this time period pics of tractors, bullock-carts, and those
working hard on the fields encounter our minds. However, the time has changed and now era
has seeped into the agricultural area. Starting from excessive-tech methods to find out the
high-quality great seeds to satisfactory agriculture methods, there is a lot that can be finished
the usage of the electricity of generation. At the identical time, even the sales of the farmers
is expected to growth with using technology. Now, with regards to technology, advanced
machinery, world-class tools to even a few software’s are being utilized by the cutting-edge
farmers to enhance the best in their farming. However, one of the great, and the most useful
integration of technology is the arrival of mobility.

5) Mobility has unexpectedly emerge as the world’s most used techniques of

transmitting records, voice in addition to numerous kinds of services within the international
nowadays. As using mobiles is growing at an exponentially high fee, consequently, even the
companies are starting to discover how they can make most of the mobile generation to
enhance their commercial enterprise. The excellent manner to supply statistics and offerings
to the clients, is in reality the usage of apps. Mobile programs allow the corporations to reach
a much broader audience, in a greater fee effective and personalized way. Be it retail,
banking, or healthcare, the mobility has converted each and each zone, and now is marching
toward the Agricultural zone as well.

6) The world is crushed by the volume of cellular packages which might be there in the
marketplace! Starting from the retailers who are searching forward to make use of their
telephones for enterprise purposes, past just speak me or texting to the current age farmers
who use them to look for wished statistics, there is a lot that a cell is able to doing.

7) Some of the latest research are really displaying who's the usage of which service, and
what the demands of the customers are. The cellular app developers are expertise how a
particular service will suit into the farmers’ lives. Therefore, they may be constructing apps
with services to be able to be very useful for the farmers. One of the examples is the costing
records for numerous forms of markets, if an app is able to provide such statistics, then it will
actually be highly fantastic for the farmers to realize about the high-quality market.
8) Some of the cellular applications also are designed to assist the farmers in a lots of
manners, like horticulture, crop control and so on. Also, a number of the cellular applications
also inform the farmers about climate associated information, the opportunities in agricultural
discipline, recommendations from the professionals, answers of the queries of the farmers
etc. Apart from all this, a number of the applications also offer dedicated information related
to the pleasant of soil, the usage of fertilizers and so on.

9) Many farmers are able to perform their everyday sports using cellular apps. When it
comes to the rural discipline, the advent of cell apps has shown very beneficial advantages,
starting from better land management decisions to first-rate yield. Farmers have even started
the use of different sort of cellular packages to review the fitness of the yields throughout
crop-cycle. Also, there are some of the contemporary mobile apps, which are being used to
make essential farming decisions related to using fertilizer and pesticides. Now, the farmers
have were given the benefit of making selections based totally on superior results rather than
handiest instinct or lifestyle.

10) The creation of mobile software improvement has allowed the farmers to work in a
more efficient manner. Also, they play a first-rate position in decreasing down the fees
worried. Mobile apps also permit the farmers to develop higher vegetation, and in flip get
better revenues and improve their livelihoods.

EXPERIENCES, LEARNING AND CONCLUSION

EXPERIENCES

 Authentic and vital information regarding the AGRI APP is available for farmers

 Some websites are having ambiguity

 More farmers and trading in AGRI APP means more wealth for the Economy and the country

LEARNINGS

o Awareness about AGRI APP

o Comparison of their tariffs and charges

o India requires more and more AGRI APPS for Agri-Products

CONCLUSION

The overarching benefits of Information and Communication Technology and Smart

telephones APPS in agriculture are that it reduces transportation, transactional and
corruption waste. It can bring about product traceability, ailment and pest monitoring, and
storage. Research studies have proven that traceability information now not only helps
manage meals dangers however also pushes up the overall business overall performance. In
developing nations, they could deliver a great portion of the arena’s agriculture, growth
efficiency stages and subsequently, lessen the environmental effect of farming .There is
tremendous potential of E-Agribusiness. As it expands , enormous opportunities would be
created in the business of agriculture sector. E-Agribusiness at global level depends upon
global information & telecommunications network of countries. Online retailing of agri
inputs is futuristic & very much relevant. Online sales & purchases can help farmers save
the middlemen margins & provide fair prices for their produce. It is absolutely necessary
that Indian Agro based Industry gets ready to do business in this medium .

This project provides survey on various techniques of the ecommerce site to

ensure the farmer to their exact profitability or to earned their products current rate of
market. A few strategies between in this project which are selected on the basis of
implementation technology used. This project support for understanding the essential
needs for designing the site and detect the lacks of sites, & planning its implementation
strategy .It is concluded that how internet based e-commerce will transform
agribusiness is still indeterminate. Supply chains may become more efficient. Stronger
connection between producers and consumers may result in more differentiated products that
meet consumer needs. E-commerce offers an alternative venue of promoting and marketing
agricultural products that has a benefit of reaching extensive geographical populations and
providing detailed product information at a relatively low cost. Markets may become
more transparent. As the Internet transcends geography the globalization of the sector may
become a reality. Transformation is about change and change creates winners and losers.
