TradeBuza: The Solutiion
TradeBuza with its team of young thinkers and varied solutions has leveraged technology towards improving yield, efficiency, and profitability in Agriculture.
Access to Finance
One of the ways, TradeBuza help solve the problem of food insecurity, is to provide access to finance for small-holder farmers through outgrower schemes using TradeBuza Capture, an end-to-end field enumeration and data management system that allows users to perform KYC collection, validation, field GPS mapping, customized reporting & other data services.
According to the World Bank’s statistics, 90% of agricultural production in Nigeria is the output of inefficient small-scale farmers. As a result, such farmers only manage to produce sufficient food to sustain their immediate families. If the above is the case, it means that if these smallholder farmers have access to finance, they will be able to produce more.
At present, TradeBuza has onboarded over 808,111 farmers.
