This research paper presents a blockchain based agricultural marketplace that directly connects farmers and buyers to ensure fair pricing and transparent trading. It removes intermediaries, reducing delays and increasing profit for farmers. All transactions are recorded on an immutable blockchain ledger, which builds trust and prevents tampering. Smart contracts automate payments and agreements, ensuring secure and error-free transactions. A Testnet based payment system enables safe digital payments during testing. Product details are stored off-chain using IPFS, with hashed data verified on-chain for integrity. The platform also provides real-time product information, helping buyers make informed decisions. Overall, the system improves transparency, security, and efficiency in agricultural trade.
