bold idea
Increase food and income security in sub-Saharan Africa by producing affordable “Smart Tractors” and connecting their owners with farmers paying for timely tractor services via SMS.
organization overview
Hello Tractor, Inc. is an agricultural technology social enterprise focused on improving food and income security for the rural poor, beginning in Nigeria. Hello Tractor has developed a low-cost Smart Tractor – embedded with GPS/telematics – which connect the Smart Tractors to cloud-based software.
Hello Tractor’s software pairs Smart Tractor owners with farmers who can text for tractor services, all coordinated in the cloud (think Uber). Resources for farming in Nigeria are often supplied by entities that rely on grants and public funds, with limited scale and impact.
Hello Tractor’s objective is to provide the means for self-sufficiency and economic growth.
