Frequently Asked Questions about Farm E-Commerce

What is a farm e-commerce?
Farm ecommerce refers to the online sale and distribution of agricultural products, such as fresh produce, meat, dairy, and value-added goods, directly from farmers to consumers or businesses. It involves the use of digital platforms like websites, online marketplaces, and social media to market and sell farm products, manage orders, and coordinate logistics, providing a direct sales channel that often eliminates the need for traditional intermediaries like wholesalers and retailers. This model helps farmers reach a wider audience, increase profitability, and offer customers access to fresher, often locally sourced, food products.
