Using tech and data to enable 10 million farmers earn fair prices by 2025
Gramhal is building a hyperlocal digital platform, called LIST, that bridges information and network asymmetry and enables farmers to negotiate a fair price with buyers in the local ecosystem. LIST provides farmers – doorstep crop quality inspection service, personalized price information, and a connection with a pool of buyers. These bundled services build farmers' agency and enable them to earn a fair price.
