Abstract:
National Agriculture Market (e-NAM) is a pan-India electronic trading portal which networks the existing APMC mandis to create a unified national market for agricultural commodities. e-NAM was launched with the theme of ‘one nation, one market’. As per the Government of India data, as on June, 2020, 1000 Mandis across 18 States and 3 Union Territories are reported under e-NAM, out of which 81 are in the Haryana. A total of 193 commodities including food grains, oilseeds, fruits & vegetables, spices etc. are listed in the e-NAM market. There are many stakeholders of e-NAM which include farmers, intermediaries, government officials etc. These stakeholders must operate with ease in e-NAM, in order to reap all the benefits.

An attempt has been made in this research paper to analyse perception of farmers of Haryana on the problems and intricacies faced in operating through e-NAM. The study covered 100 farmers of Haryana who were selected using judgement sampling. Results revealed that 54% of farmer faced problem while selling on e-NAM whereas 46% do not face problem while selling on e-NAM. Educational level of the farmers had a significant impact on problems faced while operating through e-NAM. However, age of the farmers had a non-significant impact on problems faced while trading through e-NAM. According to farmers, the most challenging factors in using e-NAM included lack of training programmes and poor understanding of the concept, limited numbers of commodities covered under e-NAM and delay in dispute settlement. The study concluded that the identification of the problems in operating through e-NAM and resolving them timely is required in bearing full fruits of e-NAM.
