Krushi Hub: A Web-Based Platform for Labour Profile Management, Equipment Booking and Mandi Price

Abstract

This paper presents Krushi Hub, a role-based web application developed to support farmers by providing access to labour profiles, equipment booking services, and mandi price information through a single digital platform. The system allows labourers to create profiles containing their skills and contact details, enabling farmers to search and directly communicate with suitable workers. Equipment owners can list agricultural machinery for rental purposes, while administrators manage mandi price data. The application is implemented using the MERN stack and follows a client–server architecture. The proposed system demonstrates the practical use of web technologies to organize agricultural resources in a simple and efficient manner.

Introduction

The text presents Krushi Hub, a role-based web application designed to address key challenges faced by Indian farmers, such as limited access to skilled labour, agricultural equipment, and accurate mandi price information. Traditional manual communication methods often lead to inefficiencies, delays, and lack of transparency. With increasing internet penetration in rural areas, Krushi Hub leverages digital technologies to streamline agricultural resource management through a centralized platform.

Krushi Hub follows a client–server architecture and supports four user roles: Farmer, Labourer, Equipment Owner, and Admin. Labourers can create and manage profiles detailing their skills, location, and wages, enabling farmers to search and directly contact suitable workers. Equipment owners can list, update, and manage agricultural machinery, while farmers can search for and request equipment bookings. The admin manages mandi price data, ensuring farmers have access to up-to-date crop price information.

The system is implemented using the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js), providing a user-friendly interface, secure role-based access, and efficient data handling. By integrating labour profiles, equipment booking, and mandi price information into a single platform, Krushi Hub improves accessibility, transparency, and efficiency in agricultural operations while remaining simple and usable for rural users.

Conclusion

Krushi Hub offers a role-based web solution that combines information about mandi prices, equipment booking, and labor profile management into a single digital platform. By enabling farmers to view labor profiles, reserve farm equipment, and check updated mandi prices via a centralized interface, the system streamlines access to vital agricultural resources. The application, which is implemented using a client-server architecture and the MERN stack, shows how contemporary web technologies can be effectively used to meet real-world agricultural needs. The project is appropriate for both academic and practical implementation and provides a dependable and scalable model for digital agricultural support.
