Agritech in Africa: How Farmers and Agribusinesses Use Digital Tools Agritech in Africa covers a lot of ground: price alerts sent by SMS, input loans repaid after harvest, crop advice over WhatsApp, and software that runs a whole agribusiness. If you farm, run a cooperative or sell to farmers, the hard part is knowing which kind of tool solves which problem, and whether it will actually reach people in the field. This guide explains the main types of agritech products, the channels they use to reach farmers, and how to choose one, with examples from the Agritech category on Builderswave. builderswave.com/blog/agrite…
