摘要
The goal of this research is to disseminate the agricultural information to illiterate farmer through latest technologies. Farmers play a vital role in our life by providing the food but they get least help to improve their methods through innovative and efficient agriculture. Mostly framers are illiterate and difficult to introduce them new farming techniques. Further, decision maker do not pay attention on local knowledge and ideas, therefore schemes do not get attention by farmers. In this context, illiterate farmer needs platform to share their ideas and information. For this research website is a mode to disseminate the information to farmers about weather, seeds, pesticides, problem facing their peer group, latest prices, updates and farming related banking services. This experimental evaluation will involve a group of ten novice users who compared the usability of a first prototype will be evaluated by Nielson's heuristics.
