WeFarm

Headquartered in London, England, Wefarm is the world’s largest knowledge network and marketplace for small-scale farmers. Using Wefarm they can share and access vital information, products and services without needing any access to the internet. Their vision is for every small-scale farmer to be able to connect with the people and resources they need to know more, buy smarter, and sell better. Farmers connect with one another to solve problems, share ideas, and spread innovation, for free, and without needing an internet connection (Wefarm works even through SMS). Utilising the latest machine learning technology, Wefarm’s service gets bespoke, crowd- sourced information to help farmers increase yields, gain insight into pricing, tackle the effects of climate change, source the best quality seeds, fertiliser, and loans and diversify their agricultural interests. Since their launch in 2015, they have grown to have over 2 million farmers using Wefarm. Wefarm has raised investment from some of the world’s leading VCs, including True Ventures in Silicon Valley, and claim to have a world class team that’s based in London, Nairobi, Kampala and Dar-es-Salaam.
