These terms govern how you may participate in the GrainBuddy forum, share advice, and use the guides and checklists published here. By joining, you agree to keep discussions practical, respectful, and grounded in field experience.
GrainBuddy is an online community forum where smallholder farmers and agricultural professionals exchange practical knowledge on grain storage, moisture control, pest prevention, silo maintenance, and post-harvest handling. The platform hosts illustrated guides, seasonal checklists, and a Q&A board moderated by agronomy volunteers. We do not sell grain, equipment, or inputs, and we do not provide commercial advisory services beyond the shared community content.
When you post a question, answer, or comment, you are responsible for the accuracy of the information you share. Describe your methods honestly, note the conditions under which they worked, and avoid presenting personal experience as universal fact. Do not post content that is defamatory, misleading, or unrelated to the forum's purpose. You must also refrain from sharing private contact details of other members without their consent.
Our volunteer moderators review reported posts and may edit, move, or remove content that violates these terms. We encourage constructive disagreement and practical debate, but personal attacks, spam, and off-topic promotion are not allowed. Repeated violations may lead to a temporary or permanent suspension of your account. Moderators act in good faith and will explain their decisions when asked.
All advice shared on GrainBuddy is provided for informational purposes only. Storage conditions, pest pressure, and equipment performance vary by region, climate, and crop. You are responsible for verifying any method before applying it to your own harvest. GrainBuddy, its moderators, and its contributors are not liable for crop loss, equipment damage, or any other harm resulting from the use of information found on this platform.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the community if you breach these terms, engage in fraudulent behavior, or disrupt the forum for other members. You may stop using the platform at any time by closing your account. Upon termination, your published posts may remain visible unless you request their removal, which we will process within a reasonable timeframe.
We may update these terms from time to time to reflect changes in the platform or legal requirements. Significant changes will be announced in the community feed before they take effect. Continued use of GrainBuddy after an update means you accept the revised terms. For questions about this document, contact us at info@grainbuddy.com or write to 27, Wafiq Chowk, Gangtok - 219960.
