Im a Kenyan entrepreneur with passion to help farmers in the dairy industry improve their productivity through access to information.
Im seeking to empower young farmers develop careers in agriculture. Im an agricultural economist by training and has served extensively in the dairy industry for over 10 years.
I believe that dairy industry is the next bussiness frontier in Kenya and East Africa.
I intend to set up an online community data base of clients that farmers need i.e extension advisors, AI service providers, feed manufacturers, industry regulators, seed sellers, etc and farmers will access the information by sending short text messages in their mobile phones at lower prices.
This will enable the farmer access services any time and thus enhance productivity. This service specifically targets farmers in the remote rural areas who have difficulty in achieving expert services.
The requested loan will be used to develop the database of service providers contacts and locations to be used to pilot the system. Each service provider will register with at least kshs 500 and the target is over 200 service providers within Eldoret town and surrounding areas.
