Agricultural impacts through Technology!

Vision

To be a leader in the agriculture production industry, providing optimal and sustainable supply chain solutions that meet the needs of all stakeholders.

Mission

We strive to optimize the agriculture production supply chain by codifying contractual commitments among supply chain stakeholders and utilizing field and transactional data to monitor and enforce performance. Our goal is to deliver improved efficiency and coordination, increased transparency, reduced costs, and increased competitiveness while ensuring a resilient and reliable supply chain that consistently delivers quality agriculture products and services to all stakeholders.

Stakeholders of Vietnam’s agriculture production supply chains

CHALLENGES

Agribusinesses

  • Unreliable crop yield supplies for processing, packaging, manufacturing, and export productions; lacking technology with production supply chain visibility through the cooperatives and their farmers. These, in turn, impact customer delivery commitment over quality, volume, and price.
  • Costs of crop yield fluctuate regularly during harvesting, while price commitments to customers are contractual and often annual
  • Loose relationships with farmers, impact the stability and reliability of supplies
  • Short on working capital, impacting payment terms and actual payments to farmers and cooperatives.



Farmer-owned cooperatives

  • Lacking the capital to pay upfront for high-cost farming tools, equipment.
  • Lacking collateral to borrow money from banks and financial institution.
  • Loose & non-commital relationships with agribusiness, therefore, face higher risks of price and volume fluctuations during harvest season.


Farmers

  • Lacking the capital to pay upfront for seeds, fertilizers, tools, equipment, labor, and cost of living during the season; often made to pay higher prices or lower quality supplies
  • Often need to borrow money from black markets with interest rates exceeding 100%; Can’t borrow money from financial institutions
  • Constantly facing “được mùa, mất giá” or “good crop, bad price” pressure in crop yield prices during harvesting.



Agri-input suppliers

  • Lacking efficient & scalable distribution channels to the farmers; multiple layers of intermediaries pushing the final price up; high sales & marketing costs.
  • Lacking the capability to help finance farmer purchases, limiting market opportunity
  • Lacking the capability to partner with agriculture lenders to facilitate more sales to farmers and cooperatives.



Agriculture lenders: banks and financial institutions

  • High cost of lending, pushing up higher loan interest rates
  • Do not have a scalable model for effective lending to farmers, cooperatives, and agribusinesses.
  • Do not have an effective risk model to lend to farmers, therefore limiting overall capital deployment in agriculture.
