But, Indian farmers are not getting expected income from agriculture due to many problems relating to pest and disease, pesticides, fertilizer, processing etc. ICT is acting as a panacea to the farmers in resolving these problems. Indian Government has implemented many schemes likee-krishi, Mahindra KisanMitra, IFFCO Agri-portal etc.and helping farmers to get better yield and income. This paper is an attempt to get an insight into the problems faced by the farmers and the ways in which ICT is helping them to overcome the same.e-SAP is the one of the best solutions for solving farmers' problems and is discussed here.
