AgriTech & Smallholder Farmer Opportunity Readiness in Africa — DFIP One
AgriTech
From Farmer Data to Farmer Opportunity.
The Problem
Millions of smallholder farmers are increasingly being registered on digital agricultural platforms, but being registered does not necessarily mean being ready to access finance, insurance, markets or climate-resilience programmes.
Financial institutions, development partners and other service providers can still struggle to determine which farmers meet their requirements, understand their risks and identify what prevents otherwise viable farmers from qualifying. Farmers, meanwhile, may not know why they are excluded from opportunities or what they need to do to become eligible.
DFIP One turns farmer data into opportunity readiness.
DFIP One is an opportunity-readiness and decision-support platform for smallholder agriculture. DFIP One complements existing farmer registries and agricultural information systems by adding an opportunity-readiness layer that helps turn relevant farmer information into pathways to finance, markets and climate-resilience services.
DFIP One
Making underserved farmers opportunity-ready and connected.
Millions of smallholder farmers contribute to Africa’s food systems but remain poorly connected to formal finance and development services, even where they are already known to agricultural or registration systems.
DFIP One creates a reusable Digital Farmer Passport combining relevant farmer, farm, livelihood, production and climate-resilience information—building the foundation for better connections to finance, markets, inputs, training and climate-resilience services.
