- retail – enables retailers & farmers to purchase authentic and high-quality agricultural input products (crop protection, seeds, farm equipment, feeds, and more).
- trade – connects farmers and buyers through end-to-end traceability of sustainable practices, transparency of information, and convenient access to markets.

The platform has been well received by users across India, and several promising pilot projects are underway in other key markets including the U.S., South Africa, Brazil and Australia.

It is driving numerous new programs, including stubble burning avoidance programs, biological products, carbon credits and reward programs to advance this mission.
