A SSNUP co-funded project by impact investor Incofin replaced the cumbersome, manual quality control of rice, maize and chickpeas with an artificial intelligence – based mobile application, thereby drastically reducing the assessment time from three days to three seconds.
The International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) carried out case studies with SSNUP beneficiary organisations to test a tool developed with Cerise for measuring compliance with the Principles for Responsible Investment in Agriculture and Food Systems.
A SSNUP-coordinated perception survey of project beneficiaries showed that cooperatives gained improved access to financing from the microfinance institution Chamroeun while the farmers enjoyed better crop yields thanks to better inputs and training.
The project by responsAbility expanded Arya.ag’s storage, financing and market access services to more farmers and their cooperatives via dedicated trainers and a digital platform.
