There are billions of dollars being poured into driving agricultural transformation among smallholding farmers in the global south. Yet truly scalable and inclusive transformation remains elusive. Driving at scale transformation is only feasible with involvement of digital solutions. But developing, deploying and using these technologies comes with its own set of challenges. Often it isn’t inclusive due to poor infrastructure within these geographies and financial constraints limit access to most up-to-date technologies.

Join us in this session hosted by Ksapa (France), with guest speakers from J-PAL (US), Tomorrow’s Foundation (India) and Dialog (Srilanka), bringing in perspectives of researchers, on-field non-profits, and mobile operators to see which digital solutions work and what needs to change.
