Mental health issues in farmers constitute nearly one-sixth of all health-related disorders in the Agri Sector. In an attempt to help farmers, India’s one of the leading agri-tech solution providers which aims to redefine the agriculture ecosystem embedded with smart and scalable solutions Agribid Pvt. Ltd. ties up with Mahadevasth Technologies for providing mental health awareness amongst farmers in India.
Though indebtedness is majorly discussed in society and media, mental health issues have compounding effects of the following: Crop failure; Indebtedness; Lack of social support; Frequent disruptions in income; Natural calamity (drought and flood); Career Problems of Younger Generation; Migration of young farmers to urban locations, etc. It is time to help farmers in all the ways best possible.
Manoj Suvarna, Co-Founder, Agribid Pvt Ltd. said “Agribid is an AGRITOUCH company. We recently introduced Agribid-FPO, which aims to empower the remotest farmers to connect with National marketplaces and to sell their commodities online with transparent pricing and ease of selling at the farm gate. Growing and reforming the lives of our country’s Annadatta and putting them on the global map is our aim. We look forward to minimizing the market’s inefficiencies and touching upon the lives of our farming community”
“We feel Mental health is something that we all need to talk about. Everyone experiences a version of anxiety or worry in their lives, and maybe we go through it in a different or more intense way for longer periods of time. There is no cast, no scar, and no stitches. No X-ray with evidence of pain. Rarely is their physical evidence of mental illness, but for those suffering from pervasive mental illness, the pain and exhaustion are deep and heavy.” He added.
“We are happy to tie up with Mahadevasth Technologies. They are a digital platform for Emotional Wellness that brings Healing through Awareness, Diagnosis and Evaluation. This tie-up will contribute towards Agribid’s initiatives in bringing growth and positive developments in the lives of the Farmers. Having good mental and emotional health is essential, we need to prioritize it.” He further added.
