Farmers contribute significantly to a country’s food security by producing fresh fruits and crops. Farmers are no longer profitable from crop cultivation due to a lack of funding, inadequate crop cultivation support from the government, rising crop cultivation costs, and frequent natural disasters. Previous farmer assistance papers did not include the development of an intelligent ICT-based smartphone application for farmers, which included an online crop selling feature, seed and fertilizer search, weather information, crop care alert, agri-expert search, agriculture training, farmer loan application, crop price listing, and crop seller store search feature. To obliterate the shortcomings, this work develops an intelligent farmer assistance smartphone application with online crop selling, crop planner, location-based seed and fertilizer seller search, weather information, location and expertise-based agri-expert search, online loan application, question submission, location- and topicbased agriculture training search, crop disease help, prioritybased crop suggestion, fertilizer recommendation, and crop price listing features. The farmer evaluation-based app practicality and feature adequacy analysis displays that at least 56 percent of users dispatch impressive remarks on the merits of our proposed farmer assistance application.
