Abstract

Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) perform the key role of bargaining for farmer members, enhancing the economies of scale and providing flexibility to farmers in terms of price. Marketplace platforms such as eNAM and NCDFI eMarket operate pan-India to facilitate trade among FPOs and other stakeholders to enhance their efficiency. This research aims to study the operations of existing models using the case of maize and examine eMarkets from the perspective of FPOs. Further, an innovative eAuction model for eMarkets is proposed based on the study, which addresses the concerns of the FPOs and provides the option of selling their produce from farms.
