The Experience

Impacting Farmers

We make strategic investments into partners and systems in order to create an enabling environment and conditions such that farmers’ capacity is increased, markets can be developed and businesses can grow. Our partners work with local government and farmers’ organizations to build farmer capacity. Some of this is done by private extension workers (a model referred to as Village Based Advisors (VBAs) who are selected by the farming communities themselves. Other synergizes include off takers within and across the continent at large, financial instruments and insurance to de-risk activities. Through this process, businesses are built.
