With an aim to bridge the gap between farmers and hi-tech farm machinery – from land preparations to harvesting – home-grown tractor manufacturer, Sonalika Tractors has launched a new Sonalika Agro Solutions tractor and implements rental app.
The platform connects the farmers with a huge range of machinery renters that offer high tech agricultural implements on rent within their vicinity. The farmers can choose from various options available as per their convenience and requirement. This app also assists the skilled operators in the area to check out employment opportunities and earn better living for their family.
The company claims that the ‘Sonalika Agro Solutions’ app will create an additional source of earning for the farmers, who own agriculture implements as they can register themselves as freelancer renters.
Available on ‘Google Play Store’, registration on this app is free of cost and is open for anyone looking to avail unique services from Sonalika. There is also a tele-customer support team to assist farmers for the registration process, in case of any assistance.
Raman Mittal, Executive Director, Sonalika Group said, “In this era of digitalisation, we have launched this app through which farmers can check advanced farm machineries available nearby as per their crop requirements through their smart phones.”
“Being a farmer-centric brand, the Government of India has chosen us for contributing to NITI Aayog for its inspirational project of doubling the farmers’ income and launching this app is yet another step towards our commitment to increase farm mechanisation in an affordable way,” he added.
Equipment owners/service providers and farmers that will hire equipment on rent or avail any kind of services by using the app would not be required to pay any service charges to Agro Solutions/International Tractors Limited, said the company.
Alongside, Sonalika Group is aggressively developing a pool of skilled operators, who possess knowledge of operating high-end machinery such as harvesters, planters, balers, and hay rakes and wishes to offer their services, thereby creating jobs in the market.
