Society of Extension Education GujaratAbstract: There are different kinds of advisory systems available for farmers some of them are at local places for face to face discussions, telephonic conversations and online websites/mobile apps, kiosks etc. Generally, it was observed that very few farmers come forward for face to face discussion or telephonic conversion with agriculture scientists or extension officers/workers. Thousands of web pages or lots of materials can be served to the farmers through the links of different categories of a website or a kiosk. But farmer have to visit the website or kiosk and find out the related information. But it was generally observed that when farmers face some problem or need advice on some topic or like to know some information about the particular practices, they don't access the so many link categories and pages available on different websites and find out the information from related pages, even though farmers cannot remember all the information served through webpages or kiosks links. So, all above methods are not time specific and location specific. Auto advisory system is time specific and location specific advisory system in which we can provide the information in few lines in local language just before the farmer's actual requirement and at actual location. Therefore, this method is most effective. Many web applications and mobile apps had been developed for farmers in last decade. But no one auto advisory system is available in Gujarati language for specific needs of groundnut Growers of the Saurashtra Region. Therefore, a pre-study survey was undertaken by the Department of Agricultural Statistics, JAU, Junagadh & all KVKs of the Saurashtra Region for the exploring the scope to start Auto Advisory Services for groundnut growers in Saurashtra region. The results of this pre-study survey was discussed in this paper.
