Producer organizations can use digital communications for demand generation.

Not every farmer needs to engage digitally. Just 20 to 30 percent engagement is good enough to keep the farmers interested in FPO services.

Like every business, FPOs need to charge farmers for services they deliver. Like a buyer, a farmer should get the satisfaction of making such a payment too.

When should the FPO charge?

1. During farmer onboarding
2. Delivery of input services
3. After sales

Rabi season sowing is in progress across Maharashtra.

FPOSoft helps FPOs:
- Record crop-wise sowing

Agri value enterprises must move beyond primary processing.

Value addition through packaged and processed food creates better income opportunities.

FPOs can lead this transformation at scale.
