Abstract

Mushroom cultivation faces significant challenges due to the absence of direct market access, limited real-time environmental monitoring, and inadequate technical guidance for small-scale farmers. This research presents the design and development of a digital platform that directly connects mushroom farmers with buyers, ensuring transparent pricing and reducing dependence on intermediaries. The proposed platform integrates a buy–sell marketplace along with real-time cultivation support, including temperature, humidity, CO₂, and light condition monitoring through sensor-based alerts. When environmental parameters deviate from optimal ranges, farmers receive instant notifications, enabling timely corrective actions to safeguard crop yield. Additionally, the system provides scientific guidance on cultivation practices, disease identification, harvesting schedules, soil composition, and spawn quality through advisory and training modules. User-friendly dashboards and standardized data entry templates are incorporated to simplify farm management for both farmers and traders. The platform also facilitates the sale of mushroom seeds, ensuring access to quality inputs. By addressing issues of scalability, sustainability, and knowledge gaps, the proposed solution empowers mushroom farmers to adopt technology-driven practices, improve productivity, and expand market reach effectively
