- E-Choupal is an initiative by ITC Ltd to connect Indian farmers to online marketplaces and information through internet kiosks located in rural villages. - ITC provides computers and internet access at kiosks run by trained local farmers, or "sanchalaks", to allow other farmers to access commodity prices, weather and farming best practices. - Over 6,500 e-Choupals are currently operational, serving over 10 million farmers. ITC aims to expand this to 20,000 e-Choupals across 15 states by 2012.
