Digital Solution
AgriApp

country Cambodia

Developed under AgriTT Research Challenge Fund-supported project, AgriApp is a mobile app based digital solution providing Cambodian farmers with access to agriculture and market related data to help them improve yields and income by making informed decisions. It enables two-way interaction with farmers, who can send their queries to agriculture experts through the service platform as well as share information. AgriApp includes a searchable database, geographic information linked to queries, training tools, and a question-and answer service and online feedback system. All these functions are useful for many areas of crop and livestock management: pest and disease management, variety/breed selection, market price information, weather and climate information, agricultural equipment, and input supplier information.
