What We Do

We engage different market players to build sustainable systems for supporting rural agricultural markets.  For example, many private enterprises do not market to rural, poor households due to perceived risks in transportation logistics, economies of scale, or lack of interest. We work at resolving these mis-perceptions and demonstrating how the private sector can benefit from sales to rural consumers who are enabled to obtain the products and services they desire and need, from agricultural inputs to better and new farming technological options and services.

We forge strategic partnerships and alliances to provide the following services;

1. Smallholder market inquiries to identify gaps and opportunities

2. Mobilize and train farmer groups and co-operatives to engage successfully with markets

3. Co-ordinate & establish linkages to improve performance of rural inputs retailers- build capacity through targeted trainings for agrodealers, stockists

4. We manage a digital marketing platform for product promotions and agricultural messaging 

5. We host agricultural events and expos, village level farm inputs activations and promotions 

Some features of our farmers’ trainings;

• Appropriate seeds in the market, based on geographical areas
• Appropriate usage of agrochemicals 
• Soil management and crop nutrition, 
• Sustainable & Conservation agriculture.
• Minimizing post-harvest losses.
