The Kerala State Information Technology Mission has launched a toll-free agricultural trade call center and the revamped e-Krishi Web site. Speaking at the launch ceremony in the city on Monday, the Kerala Agriculture Minister, Mr.Mullakkara Ratnakaran, said the portal should help to create a sense of community and spirit of unity among farmers in the State. The absence of proper guidance on global developments that will impact local agriculture operations is a problem that confronts Kerala's farmers. Initiatives such as this could help solve such problems, he added. The e-Krishi portal, www.e-krishi.org, is a free site and contains information on a number of topics related to agriculture including agricultural prices and trends.
