Ground Fresh-Bridging the Gap between Farmers and Consumers with Mobile App

Abstract

Ground Fresh is a mobile application that aims to bridge the gap between farmers and consumers by providing a platform for direct sales of agricultural products. The app allows farmers to create profiles, list their available products, and set prices. Consumers can browse the available products, place orders, and make payments directly to the farmers. The app features a user-friendly interface that allows farmers to manage their profiles and products easily. Farmers can update their product listings, view orders, and track sales history. The app also features a messaging system that allows farmers and consumers to communicate directly with each other, enabling them to discuss orders, delivery options, and other details. For consumers, Ground Fresh provides a convenient way to purchase fresh, locally sourced produce directly from farmers. Consumers can search for products based on location, type, and availability. They can view detailed information about the products, including photos, descriptions, and pricing. Once they have placed an order, they can track the delivery status and communicate with the farmer if necessary. The main objective of the Ground Fresh app is to promote local agriculture and support small scale farmers by providing them with a direct sales platform. By eliminating intermediaries, farmers can sell their products at better prices, while consumers can enjoy fresh produce at affordable prices. The app also helps to reduce food waste by enabling farmers to sell their products before they spoil.
