Impacting 250,000 farmers by 2027
We take it as our moral imperative responsibility to end Hunger and ensure food security for 250,000 farmers from rural communities in Africa by 2027. Our goal is to increase their agricultural productivity by at least 45% and ensure that all the people, especially the rural farming communities, have access to safe and sufficient food throughout the year.
Scaling to 15 Kenyan counties by 2024
Food insecurity continues to be a significant challenge in Kenya, despite ongoing efforts to address the issue. Key contributing factors include food losses from crop pests and diseases, climate change, droughts, and land degradation. Our technology is designed to tackle these underlying issues, supporting our commitment to scale our solutions across 15 counties/regions in Kenya by 2024.
Scaling to 5 African countries by 2026
Although numerous global NGOs are actively working to alleviate hunger and enhance food security in Africa, the continent continues to experience the highest levels of hunger and remains the most vulnerable to future shocks and crises. Conversely, research by WFP (USA, 2017) indicates that technology can offer significant solutions. This finding reinforces our goal of expanding our proven impact to five African countries by 2026.

My name is Boniface, we farm here in Kabete in Kenya. I am 19 years old, I have grown up farming, my parents are farmers, farming is in my DNA. Since we started using the Farmer Lifeline device as a family, it has enabled us detect crop pests and diseases, and advises us on the chemicals that we can apply, forecasts the weather for us. We now have better harvest and better produce.
My names are Peter Njau Mburu, I am a farmer here in Kiambu Kenya. I am very thankful to Farmer Lifeline, because their technology has really helped me in knowing the pests and diseases on my farm, and the fertilizer I should apply. My farming business has been very good recently, at least I now earn a decent income. I see myself far much better than my friends here (smiling).
My name is Julius Kimani. I am a young person, I finished school two years ago. I started using the device very recently after I heard about it at the community shop ("base"). At first I didn't care since I am not a farmer but I came and explained to my parents bow my friends lives are getting transformed and we decided to try. Looking at the crops yourself (interview was done at the farm), you can see how good they look. I encourage you watching me to use the device. Thank you Farmer Lifeline. I have bee encouraging my friends who are often idle and encouraging them to use it because I know their lives will change.
My name is Marion Mburu, I farm here in Ruku, Kiambu. I can say the machine (Farmer Lifeline device) has assisted me a lot. It tests for me the crop pests and diseases and advises me what to do. It really assists me. It advises me on my phone on what I should apply and where I can buy it which is very good. I have seen a big benefit since I met you (Farmer Lifeline interviewer). From the profits in my farm, I have educated my children, the areas where I would harvest 100 pieces (kales), now I get almost 500 pieces (kales). Am happy.
