We create impact by accelerating and scaling small holder farmer businesses in subsaharan Africa to reduce poverty and increase productivity
Thank you Moustapha. I cant help but appreciate your understanding of the value proposition here and what it would take to improve the well being of ordinary people in Africa.
Sustainability is archived around getting industrial action to enable small holder farmers overcome the barriers to increased productivity. By creating better conditions for small scale farmers, they are able to transform to a larger scale farming. These barriers include low prices on farm produce, poor farming methods, poor seeds, lack of access to bigger markets, absence of mechanized farming, lack of finances/loans/credit facilities, lack of skills in better farming methods, land disputes, poor infrastructure, lack of facilities to predict weather, limited irrigation capacity, poor personal financial management, lack of education, and others. Through intermediary organizations that empower small scale farmers to over come these challenges, production can become sustainable.
