PlantVillage

Our goal is to help smallholder farmers grow more food.

There are 550 million farms in the world and 83% are small, less than 2 hectares, family farms with little or no access to knowledge on increasing productivity

We empower farmers to increase yield by leveraging Artificial Intelligence to provide off line expert level knowledge and extension advice in their fields
