Soil plays a major factor which affects crop production. Therefore to have optimum Crop Production a healthy and productive soil is must. We at CSC, are providing soil testing kits which analyses the soil samples of farmers fields for various macro and micronutrients, acidity, basicity, Organic Carbon etc. On the basis of reports generated, necessary recommendation of nutrient application is provided. This helps in need based application of fertilizer. This further leads to cost cutting and ultimately results in reduction of overall cost of crop production. This will help farmer to sustain fertility level of their soil and production obtained in upcoming years.
Over the years mechanisation of farming practices has taken place. Therefore for good production it becomes a necessity for farmers to use machinery like Harrow, cultivators, threshers, rotavators, seed drill etc. However these machineries are very costly and unaffordable for small and Marginal farmers. That’s where Movr comes to farmers rescue. It is a service where small and marginal farmers can take costly machinery on rent. On the other hand Farmers who own the machinery can earn by lending their machinery on rent.
In rural areas it is unfavourable to have a full fledged Bank.
