EMEDEN Kenya Farmers is leveraging on technology to offer farmers a One-Stop- Shop online as well as offline last mile market access platform that minimizes their challenges and enables them to use their numbers as leverage in the market to make them rewarded and valuable actors in the value chain for sustainable agriculture.
The Context and Motivation of EMEDEN Work is informed by the fact that, in Kenya, smallholder farmers produce over 75 percent of agricultural output, but their survival is impeded by key challenges ranging from access to input and output markets; infrastructure; extension services; institutional problems; climate change and food security.
To achieve economic revolution, Kenya needs to focus on creating a sustainable agricultural mechanism in the rural areas, hence a focus on the smallholder farmer.
The Vision of EMEDEN is “Empowered smallholder farmers engaged in sustainable agriculture for sustainable livelihoods” and its Mission is to work for smallholder farmers for sustainable livelihoods.
EMEDEN is guided by the following Core Values:
