Abstract: Agriculture is a major sector that supports the livelihood of a significant portion of the population. However, farmers often face challenges such as dependence on intermediaries, limited market access, high transportation costs, and difficulties in communicating directly with buyers. To address these challenges, the present invention proposes a Voice-Based Farmers Marketplace App Connecting Farmers to Markets. The invention provides a mobile-based platform that enables direct interaction and trading between farmers and buyers through a digital marketplace. Farmers can list agricultural products, manage orders, and communicate with buyers without intermediary involvement. The system incorporates a voice-based interaction module that allows users to perform marketplace operations using spoken commands, thereby improving accessibility for users with limited digital literacy. The invention further includes a shared transport coordination mechanism that enables users to create and participate in transport requests for agricultural goods, reducing logistics costs and improving delivery efficiency. Location-based services are utilized to support product discovery and transport coordination. By integrating direct market access, voice-assisted operation, and transport coordination within a single platform, the invention improves accessibility, transparency, and operational efficiency in agricultural trade.
