# Welcome to K-Mart



## Project Overview



K-Mart, short for Kisan Mart, is an innovative platform designed for Indian farmers to access real-time market prices for their yields. The app shows prices from nearby and distant markets, helping farmers decide where to sell their produce for maximum profit. Beyond market prices, K-Mart offers features like weather updates, event notifications, government schemes, and order management. A future update will include a Crop Doctor feature, using CNN, deep learning, and ML models with TensorFlow, to diagnose plant diseases.

## Motivation



Indian farmers face challenges in getting accurate and timely information about market prices, which can significantly impact their earnings. K-Mart addresses this by providing a comprehensive platform that not only helps farmers get the best prices for their yields but also offers additional resources to support their farming activities and decision-making processes.



## What It Does



K-Mart allows farmers to:



- **Access Market Prices:** View live prices from various markets to choose the most profitable one.

- **Weather Updates:** Receive timely weather information to plan farming activities.

- **Event Notifications:** Stay informed about relevant agricultural events and deadlines.

- **Government Schemes:** Learn about and apply for government schemes and support programs.

- **Order Management:** Manage and track orders for agricultural inputs and services.

- **Crop Doctor (Future Update):** Diagnose plant diseases by uploading photos of affected plants.



## Features



- **User-Friendly Interface:** Intuitive design for seamless navigation and ease of use.

- **Real-Time Data:** Access to live market prices and weather updates.

- **Comprehensive Resource Center:** Information on government schemes, events, and order management.

- **Secure and Confidential:** Prioritizes user privacy and data security.

- **Advanced Plant Diagnosis (Future Update):** AI-powered plant disease detection using CNN, deep learning, and ML models.



## How We Built It



K-Mart is built using the following technologies:



- **Frontend:** React Native, Expo

- **Backend:** Django, Django Rest Framework, Node.js

- **State Management:** Redux

- **Database:** MySQL

- **Authentication:** JWT Authentication

- **HTTP Requests:** Axios



The backend processes user inputs and maintains the database, while the frontend offers an interactive user interface for accessing market prices, weather updates, and other features.



## Challenges



Integrating the Django-based backend with React Native frontend presented initial challenges, particularly in maintaining real-time data flow and ensuring secure authentication. However, by leveraging Axios for HTTP requests and JWT for authentication, we achieved seamless integration.



## What We Learned



Developing K-Mart provided valuable insights into full-stack development, especially in backend-frontend communication and secure data management. We enhanced our skills in React Native, Django, state management, and machine learning model integration, leading to a robust and user-centric application.



## What's Next for K-Mart



Future enhancements for K-Mart include:



- **Crop Doctor Feature:** Integrating advanced analytics for plant disease detection using CNN, deep learning, and ML models.

- **Enhanced User Experience:** Adding new features to further support farmers' decision-making processes.

- **Expanded Resource Center:** Providing more comprehensive information on agricultural practices, government schemes, and market trends.
