Farmcrowdy is an agricultural startup which connects small-scale farmers with needed help by making Nigerians to sponsor their farming activities.

Farmcrowdy sponsors earn a return on their money after completion of the farming cycle. To all parties involve, it is a win-win situation for all.

The CEO and co-founder of Farmcrowdy, Mr Onyeka Akumah explained more about the company's mission during an interview with Business Insider Sub-Sahara Africa.

Farmcrowdy CEO, Mr Onyeka, said the mission of the company is to improve living conditions of small-scale farmers in Africa by involving everybody. More so, he said this will translate to solving the food security problems in the continent.

Access to finance and poor knowledge of modern agricultural practices are the bane of small-scale farmers in Nigeria. And these farmers constitute over 90 percent of players in the crop production segment of the industry.

Considering these problems, Mr Onyeka said: “To farmers, Farmcrowdy is the bridge to funds and resources they need. We don’t just give the resources they need, we also mentor and guide them."

"We train them on what they need to do to improve quality of output. This is done through both class and field training on modern agricultural practices.”

Farmcrowdy CEO also hinted at how to solve access to the market problem for these farmers. In most cases, getting the farm produce to the market is a daunting task for farmers.
