What is Project Harvests
AgriPortal’s Project Harvests is a “Market to Farm” social enterprise project with multi-faceted goals intended to uplift the lives of our farmers and their families morally, financially, and technologically.
It aimed to correct the inefficient production and unstable delivery supply system of agricultural food products that had caused deleterious effects already.
Project Harvests is a digital platform that will enable our farmers to post and trade online in advance for their products that are yet to be harvested, and at the comfort of their own farms. Buyers can reserve their crops, monitor their farms, arrange logistics, and agricultural service providers to ensure fresh crops at the right time.
Our Payment Gateway System shall ensure that all transactions are efficient, real-time and secured. Altogether provide convenience for farmers and buyers alike.
