What can I Expect from Farm Management Services providers?

Running a farm is not just about planting seeds — it’s about managing dozens of little things every single day. For an anxious landowner, that’s scary. But relax — this survey will walk you through all the possible services an expert farm manager can provide. Think of it like a thali menu — you can pick and choose the items you want.

SECTION 1 — 🌱 Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E) How do I actually know what’s happening on my land when I am not there?

Q1. Imagine your farm after three months. The caretaker says “sab theek hai,” but you don’t know if the crops are actually growing well, whether fertilisers were used properly, or if pests have quietly enjoyed a free buffet. How would you like your expert service provider to track performance?

Q2. Reports are another big worry. You don’t want to call ten times a week asking “kya ho raha hai.” So how often and in what style would you like to receive farm reports?

Q3. Think about monitoring frequency. Farming is dynamic — pests can attack in 3 days, water pumps can fail overnight. How often should your expert check and collect data?

SECTION 2 — 💸 Finance, Risks & Money Matters Where does the paisa go, and how do I make sure it’s safe?

Q4. Money is the nervous system of any farm. How would you like your farm’s income and expenses to be recorded?

Q5. Farming is risky — weather, pests, markets. How should these risks be handled for you?

Q6. Misuse of inputs or theft of produce is every absentee’s nightmare. How do you want it tackled?

SECTION 3 — 👥 People, Skills & Training Who does the actual work, and how do I keep them skilled and reliable?

Q7. Labour is the backbone of farming. How do you want your farm’s workforce to be managed?

Q8. Skills keep changing. Today’s farming uses machines, sensors, and eco-practices. How should training be handled?

Q9. Disputes happen — over wages, duties, or land use. How should these be handled?

SECTION 4 — 📈 Marketing & Market Linkages How do I make sure my produce sells well and gets good rates?

Q10. Selling produce is the final test. How do you want your crops to reach the market?

Q11. Would you like to receive market intelligence — price trends, demand forecasts, customer feedback?

Q12. Do you see your farm as just a produce-seller, or as a potential brand?

SECTION 5 — 📦 Materials & Inventory Control Inputs in, outputs out — who tracks every bag, box, and basket?

Q13. Inputs like seeds, fertilisers, pesticides — how should these purchases be managed?

Q14. Harvest storage is critical. What’s your plan?

Q15. Do you want systematic inventory records (what came in, what went out)?

Farming is no longer “just plough and pray.” It’s a mix of money, markets, people, and nature. Whether you do-it-yourself or delegate, Hello Kisan can design the package you need.
