Seed and pesticide sales may need batch numbers, licence records and expiry per batch. Dukaan POS counts stock per product with the earliest expiry date, not per batch, and has no regulatory records. Use it for billing, stock and farmer credit, and keep compliance papers separately.
1Bags and kilograms
Fertiliser sells in 50 kg bags, seed in packs from 1 kg to 25 kg. Use kg as the base unit and add bag or pack sizes as packages with their own prices. Selling two bags and loose kilograms from an open bag both come out of one stock figure.
Dealer sales by season
Example share of yearly sales
2Credit until harvest
Many farmers pay after the crop is sold. Give each a page, record sales as credit with a promised date, and note payments when they come. Dues lists sorted by date show who is overdue, and an exact record helps when a conversation about a large balance is needed.
A good fit
- Bags and loose kilograms
- Farmer credit with dates
- Product-level expiry
Not a fit
- Batch-wise pesticide records
- Licence reporting
- Recall tracing
3Seasonal demand
Sales cluster at sowing and at crop stages. Read the previous season's product sales, raise minimums on the lines that ran out, and pay suppliers early enough to receive stock before the rush. Order records make the next season easier to plan.
🧮 Customer balance calculator
Record each payment as it comes; the balance updates every time.
4Dates on inputs
Seeds and sprays have dates. Enter expiry on delivery and receive a warning 30 days ahead. Move older stock forward and offer a discount to farmers on near-dated items. Note this is per product, not per batch.
5Tools and sundries
Sprayers, tools, pipes and gloves sell by the piece. They sit in the same catalogue as inputs, and one profit report shows how each group contributes to the business.
6Supplier accounts
Companies and distributors supply on credit with seasonal schemes. Record each delivery with the bill number and your part payment, so your balance and pay-by date are always known.
7A worked example
A farmer takes four bags of fertiliser at Rs 8,400 and 20 kg of seed at Rs 650 a kilo, total Rs 46,600. He pays nothing now and promises payment after the harvest in two months. His page records the bill and the date, and when he pays Rs 30,000 in the second month the balance shows Rs 16,600, which you can decide to carry or collect.
8Planning the season
Before sowing, check last season's product sales for each input, add what you think the weather will change, and place orders early. During the season, read the low-stock list each evening. Afterwards, stock valuation shows what is left, so you can see whether you over-bought and by how much.
9What to test in the free trial
Add your five busiest inputs with bag packages, create two farmers with opening balances and bill a mock credit sale with a due date. Open the dues report and check the order. Ask whether per-product expiry is enough for your seeds and sprays. If your licence needs batch-wise records, keep a separate register for those items.
