Competition among players operating in the agricultural sector has increased strongly in the past few years. Offline sales have increased the pressure of cost, supply chain, and intermediaries within the whole ecosystem. E-commerce is an efficient tool for micro and medium size businesses. This has helped sellers to reduce the transportation cost and also enabled access to untapped markets.

Increasing Adoption by Smallholders
