  • “Cashew India” App: A must see app for cashew stakeholders

    ICAR- Directorate of Cashew Research, Puttur in

    Karnataka has recently developed the "Cashew

    India" App for cashew farmers and other

    stakeholders of cashew in India.

    Available in Google Play Store, this is an innovative

    app for everyone interested in farming. Developers

    claim that this is a unique app which shows a new

    path in development of crop related apps.

    With the ideas of ‘Farmer friendly’ ‘Comprehensive”, ‘Ease of use” and ‘Country wide

    Info” in the background, the ‘Cashew India’ app is built with several unique features.

    This app gives comprehensive information on cashew grafts, nursery, cultivation,

    plant protection, post harvest processing, market information, e-market, various

    stakeholders such as farmers, researchers,

    developmental agencies and processors at one

    place. Here Farmer/User can upload and store his

    own cashew images and videos in “My cashew”

    sub-section of ‘Cultivation” section. It is also

    possible to record the expenditure, observations

    and data of the cashew farm. Further, it is possible

    to order for grafts online in ‘Planting Material”

    section from the research stations in a state. The

    user can give your buy/sell requirements in ‘Market

    info” section and they can contact experts through

    “Ask Expert” section

    The app is developed for 10 states of India such as

    Gujarat, Maharastra, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil

    Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Chattisgarh, Orissa, West

  • Bengal and Meghalaya. So far, this might be the highest number of states in an

    app!! The app is in 11 languages i.e. Hindi, English, Gujarati, Marathi, Kannada,

    Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, Oria, Bengali and Garo. It is very rare to see any app

    being developed separately in so many languages that

    to without google translate help.

    Interestingly, real time chatting is possible in ’Chat

    Room’ with the users who are using app at a given

    point of time and E-speak button provided throughout

    the app enables the app to read text for users in

    different sections
