Agrodots Details
Agrodots is an agritech social enterprise providing a set of non-financial and financial services to rural smallholder farmers, and businesses with the aim to accelerate inclusive markets for commercialisation and growth of their ventures, products and processes across legumes and cereals value chains. Agrodots leverages technology innovation to solve market insecurity with a two-sided approach of capacitating smallholder farmers, and sourcing and selling, to ensure inclusion and sustainability in the market. We believe that by empowering farmers to grow their business, we are able to create a constant supply of quality produce. We ensure that farmers grow their business by providing a guaranteed market, fair and transparent pricingWe have developed an innovative digital platform that maps and clusters smallholder farmers, farm sizes, crop type, and businesses in communities in order to streamline contract farming management processes and trading of legumes, oilseeds and cereals for retail, distribution and processing within the country. Our innovation monitors farmlands, crop growth, production and supply. We are strengthening our supply chain through establishing and rapidly expanding networks of village-level commodity aggregation, procurement and service distribution centres, known as Agrodot Centres. The centres directly connect Agrodots to farmers within a chiefdoms and communities for them to access extension services, training, input finance, and trade their commodities.
