ABSTRACT

Here, we developed E-commerce website to bridge gap between vender and farmer. We are trying to
provide service like take required equipment from vender on rent basis. As information concerning
farm related equipment are not affordable to all farmer. The main objective of this website is to
manage a fleet of agricultural machinery including various farming equipment such as harvester, JCB,
Tractor, Pickup, rotor and so on. This proposed system is user friendly for end user. The objective of
website is to deliver the online farm related equipment through web platform. It helps buying the
equipment in the shop anywhere through internet through Laptop and Computer. Users can enjoy the
shopping from anywhere. It stores all information such as Customers record keeping, user just have to
enter the primary information about a user and his/her account. Thus, our website is highly integrated.
It also has an easy to use interface for farmer and vender. The website allows vender and farmer for
updating their previous provided information. C# was used to create the front end for system and SQL
server was used for the back end.

Keywords: E-Commerce, Service, equipment etc.

1. INTRODUCTION
In today’s world, every Farmer won’t have that much bank balance to buy each and every farming
equipment. The innovation is fast to the point that anybody can do anything by simply sitting in a
room. So, it is an imperative issue as per observation. In the event that any farmer wishes to take
equipment on rent and view equipment information, they can purchase online with the assistance of
web. If any new farmer wants to do farming, he doesn’t know about the farming equipment as per this
concern this website is implemented. The system can access by any person no special training is
needed to handle this. In this system we are providing main two domains like vender and farmer.
These domains are managed by administrator.
Every farmer does not have sufficient money to buy every equipment which is required for farming.
So, here we are trying to provide service to farmer or user that they can take equipment on rent per
hour basis. Comprehensive services that deliver equipment’s when and where needed, with minimum
waste of resources. Our website has a facility to give a unique id for each and every farmer and also
for vender and also registered equipment also.
System can also provide online payment facility for pay rent of that specific equipment by using
online payment applications such as Paytm, Google Pay. This system also provides facility like when
any farmer wants to take any equipment on rent then that request is sends to admin window then
admin manage that request manually and reply of that specific vender is send to that requested farmer.
All the information of vender, farmer and also the each and every registered equipment is manually
accessed by authorized admin. Because of this authorized access the registered information is in safe
zone. Mainly security is providing to registered data no any unauthorized person can access any other

person information. This system can also help to reduce the demand of labours which are required for
efficient farming.

Problem Statement
Every farmer does not have sufficient money to buy every equipment which will require for the
farming. So, here we are trying to provide service to the farmer or user that farmers can buy
equipment’s on per hour rent basis. Comprehensive services that deliver equipment’s, when and
where needed, with minimum waste of resources. Our software has the facility to give a unique id for
every product and users. The details of every product and the user will store on database
automatically.

Proposed system

The Farm Equipment Rental System website is user-friendly website. The main objectives of the
system which shows and helps you to farmer for buying equipment’s on rent basis, rent can be on
hour basis. So, farmer or vender does not need to buy every equipment which they required. The
design and implement of the system is simple. The system needs very low system resources and the
system will work in almost all configurations.

2. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The proposed application is implemented using HTML, C# and MYSQL workbench. The application
was tested on DOT NET web browser to determine the functionality. The existing e-commerce
website provide the features of a sophisticated add to cart, on-site wish list. This paper proposes an e-
commerce shopping application to rent an equipment and promote only the Indian products.

2.1 Modular Design

The functionality of the proposed application is divided into sub modules. The modules to be taken
into account are equipment add to cart, orders, payment and equipment module. These modules while
combines together give the functionality desired output of the application.
 Farmer
In this module the farmer information is processed. This information includes giving username and

password to login to this site. This is required to verify the user. The registered number of the
customer is used to confirm the farmer’s orders and also to send promotional number. Farmer can also
do payment on online mode by using online payment application like Paytm, Google Pay.

 Vender
In this module the vender information is processed. This information includes giving username and
password to login to this site. This is required to verify the user. The contact number of the vender is
used to confirm the vender’s registered equipment and also to send promotional number. Vender can
also see their registered equipment when they login on their account using their user id and password.

2.2. Add to Cart

This sub-module lets the farmer to select the items that they intend to take on rent to store in cart
before placing the order. The items can be stored into the cart and it can be deleted from the cart.
Order
In this module farmer order is processed. The user can place the order for the equipment they want to
take on rent. It verifies the pin code and it confirms the order to delivered place. At the given address
the equipment should be delivered.

2.3. Payment
In this sub module payment options for the order is given and processed. Payment would be through
credit card, debit card or cash on delivery. The total charges of the equipment are the sum of cost of
the product and delivery charges will be deducted from the user’s account in case of payment options
other than cash on delivery.

2.4. Equipment
In this module Equipment details can be added to the database. The late charges and actual price of
the equipment can be added. The equipment details can be edited. The equipment is stored as per
category. Arrangement of equipment into categories enables the user to search the Equipment based
on its category. The database is normalized so that the redundancy is minimized.

3. DEVELOPMENT TOOLS
The entire development process has been subdivided into two: the front-end development and the
backend development. The front end comprises of the visually visible parts such as the home page,
admin panel, contact page, About us page, vender and farmer panel. The back end contains the
database and its interaction with the front-end.

 Front End Development:

The front end was initially raw coded using HTML and CSS. Hypertext mark-up language is the
language used to design the web pages of an application. A static page is an HTML document that is
stored on the web server and does not change. This was performed by Cascading Style Sheet (CSS).
CSS is a style sheet language which describes the look and formatting a document. These CSS files
are linked with the class files with .php extensions to put the panels in order, the text with correct font,
size and color.
For example, in website for the framer’s registration, the system asks to provide their details which
contains their name, contact number, age, etc. If they missed any of the details, then immediately the
browser asks them to fill the particular field. This is implemented and handled by a HTML and CSS.

 Backend Development:
The Database Management System provides support for the back end. The database management
system is essentially software where admin can create the database, add, drop, alter and update tables.
The tables can hold different types of data for example: integer, variable characters etc. in our
application we have chosen the MySQL DBMS to hold the database. MySQL is a relational database
management system. The main reason is MySQL development project has made its source code
available under the terms of the General Public License (GNU) which is an open source web
application.

 Database Design:
One of the most important and challenging tasks is the database design. The information passed by the
vender or farmer while registering in the website is stored in the database. The products with their
identification, description and image is stored in the database. Moreover, if admin update any of the
featured products then update takes place in the database. So, the program has a lot to do with the
database.
