Across Africa, unsustainable farming practices combined with climate change have exhausted the soil — leaving much of the ground unfarmable. In addition to the growing lack of arable land, agricultural knowledge and education have proven to be in short supply. With this in mind, the Haller Foundation — a UK based charity and Kenyan NGO — devised a plan to provide farmers across the continent with the information, skills and infrastructure they need to thrive through an award-winning mobile app. The Haller Farmers app leverages the increasing availability of mobile connectivity in Africa to promote viable farming techniques needed to maximise food production and help build thriving, self-sustaining communities.
