Alloysius Attah

Alloysius launched Farmerline in 2013 to create lasting profit for African farmers. This mission was forged by more than a decade of farming experience and scaling digital tools that increase farmer income through a reliable market and service access. He believes user inspired technological solutions coupled with a network of well trained young community agents can increase farm productivity, reduce the cost of small-scale farming and create jobs for young people. He leads the overall strategy and vision of Farmerline with a specific focus on business development and product innovation. Today, Farmerline and its partners have digitised and served over 200,000 farmers and mapped 1 million acres of farmland across 12 countries. Several organizations and world leaders have endorsed his work including Ms Christine Lagarde of the IMF, CBNC Africa 's Young Business Leader Award and the King Baudouin African Development Prize.
