Capture
Fields and harvests
Plots, crops, sowing, care, harvest and storage become traceable.
Digital agriculture
More yield through local experience, better data and simple tools.
AskAfro connects agricultural knowledge on the ground with digital methods that remain usable even in regions with weak infrastructure.
Goal
Agriculture should become more plannable, transparent and resilient.
Many producers work under difficult conditions: uncertain rainy seasons, changing prices, missing storage data and limited access to advice. For AskAfro, digital agriculture means practical information at the right time.
Record soil, plots, crops and harvests in a structured way.
Better understand production quantities, losses and stock levels.
Simplify advice, training and evaluation for cooperatives and projects.
Approach
Digitalization that works in the field.
Environment
Soil and resources
Water, soil quality and residues are planned better and used more sustainably.
Software
Offline-first
Mobile apps remain usable in the field and reliably align new information later.
Benefit
For farmers, cooperatives, NGOs and local administrations.
Producers see better what was planted, harvested and sold.
Cooperatives can track members, quantities and quality more reliably.
NGOs receive reliable project data for impact, training and reporting.
Regional partners can plan more precisely where support is needed.
Offline
Data remains recordable even when there is no internet in the field.
Local
The solution follows the language, daily life and working style of people on site.
Growth
Drones, maps, sensors and evaluations can be added step by step.
