Last mile[01]
Farmers and extension agents
Answers on the phone already in your pocket. Agents can see what farmers have been told, call them back, and flag anything that came out wrong in the local language.
Every farmer gets an agronomist.
No smartphone required.
Ask a farming question on any phone, in your own language. You get an answer built around your soil, your crop and this season — not a general leaflet. And if the system isn't sure, a real expert checks the answer before you ever see it.
Calling is free. USSD and SMS cost normal network rates, with nothing added. Only WhatsApp uses data. The conversation follows the farmer, not the channel.

How it works
[01]Visible to user
You ask
In Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, Pidgin or English. If the question isn't clear, it asks you what you meant.
[02]Automated pipeline
It looks up your land
What your soil is like where you are, and what works for the crop you're growing.
[03]Automated pipeline
You get an answer
Short, in your language, and specific enough to do something with today.
[04]Automated pipeline
A person checks
If the system isn't confident, the answer stops and an expert looks at it first.
How we keep it honest
When it doesn't know, it says so — and asks someone who does.
A question about goats goes to the people who spend their lives on livestock. A question about cassava goes to the people who spend theirs on cassava. And when one of them fixes an answer, the fix stays fixed — so the next farmer who asks the same thing gets the better answer straight away.

Read the brief See the partner portal Join the content working group
An open digital infrastructure powering agricultural intelligence, direct-to-farm communication, and localized advisory services.
Get started
Public sector[02]
Government
This is public plumbing, not somebody's app. Hosted in Nigeria, built on open standards, and every answer it has ever given can be traced back and checked.
Private sector[03]
Agribusiness
Find out what farmers are actually asking for, where, and in which week — then reach exactly those farmers. What you learn stays yours. No other partner can see it.
Knowledge[04]
Research and training institutions
Your guidance stops sitting in a PDF. Publish it once and it reaches farmers in every language, on every channel. Correct an answer here and it becomes the answer everyone gets.
Emergency Alerts
If something is spreading, you hear about it in minutes.
A disease moving through the area, armyworm, or a storm coming in. The warning goes only to farmers in that area growing that crop — by call, text, and WhatsApp at the same time. No noise for everyone else.
