There are 475 million smallholder farms around the world. Smallholder farmers struggle with poor productivity, lack of access to inputs and technology, food loss and spoilage, and limited access to markets. At the same time, nearly two billion people suffer from malnutrition and food security is threatened by the changing climate. How can we build food and agriculture systems that nourish the world, while improving the lives of smallholder farmers? Farmeasy is the solution to the underlying question. With one Farmer at a time, Farmeasy is opening up the space for agricultural participation by allowing the public to easily fund a farm with a promise to deliver profitable returns to them while also empowering farmers at the same time. Therefore, we are inviting the public to join us in our journey to empower rural farmers and build an Africa that feed itself.
