Farm-Hand careers

The agriculture ecosystem is archaic and broken, causing irreversible environmental, economic and social damage. With internet connectivity pervasive in remote areas and Big Data potential, the sector is going through a revolution and Farm-Hand is working at the forefront.

Farmers learn about the cultivation practices, technologies, market linkage solutions that work from those around them. This village level learning is not powerful enough for scale appropriate solutions as the pace we need.

We extend this farmer-centric learning and in a transparent manner, democratise access to productive and sustainable farming. We do this by digitising the farm, build farm yield and resource forecasting models understanding business-as-usual, the impact of different solutions and finally link the farmer to the solution.

Our core product, the Farm-Hand Platform is a smart farm management and marketplace software for agri-producers that uses field survey, satellite, weather and crop-based data analytics to provide field-specific insights, solution recommendation and regional insights. We work crop-by-crop and work directly with farmer organisations from cooperatives to large companies. We aim to be the software and data analytics partner for farming organisations and eventually the farmers.

We aspire to shift the supply-driven ecosystem that currently works for the input companies/buyers to a demand-driven, open ecosystem that reduces risk and empowers farming organisations and their farmers.
