AI for Good-Innovate for Impact

In addition to addressing SDG 2, our solution is also aligned with SDG 12, which aims to promote
sustainable production and consumption patterns. By reducing food loss and waste, we can
conserve natural resources and reduce the carbon footprint associated with food production.
We recognized that many farmers in Africa struggle with pest and disease management and
that it is a major contributor to food loss.
We believe that our solution has the potential to make a significant impact on food security
and sustainable development in Africa, while also contributing to global efforts to address
climate change.

20�2�2� Future work

Scholarships and resources would catalyze our efforts to democratize access to agricultural
technology, promote sustainable farming practices, and empower smallholder farmers to thrive
in an ever-changing agricultural landscape. Firstly, if we get funds, it would provide essential
financial support for sustaining the servers and infrastructure necessary for open-sourcing our
technology. The resources would ensure that our solution remains accessible and beneficial
to smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa and beyond.

Given resources would also facilitate ongoing research and development efforts, allowing us to
continually innovate and refine our solution to meet the evolving needs of farmers better and
address emerging challenges in agriculture. Additionally, we want to expand our community
engagement initiatives, including training and capacity-building programs focused on modern
agricultural practices and regenerative farming techniques. These programs would empower
farmers with the knowledge and skills they need to enhance their productivity and resilience.
