Prime Minister Narendra Modi sowed the seeds
for a farming revolution, with the launch of eNAM,
an online portal for trading in agriculture
produce, which promises to liberate farmers from
the clutches of middle-men and realise fair market
value for their yields.

farmers in eight States - Uttar Pradesh, Madhya
Pradesh, Jharkhand, Himachal Pradesh, Gujarat,
Telangana, Rajasthan and Haryana - to sell 25
commodities in 21 wholesale mandis.
The commodities that will initially be sold online
include chana (black gram), castor seed, paddy,
