Download or read book Overcoming challenges to digital agribusiness start-ups written by Kropff, Wietske. This book was released on 2019-03-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent CTA workshop on ‘catalysing actionable knowledge to enhance next-generation ACP agribusiness through digitalisation’ identified five intersecting drivers that explain what farmer-oriented agribusinesses expect to achieve by investing in digitalisation: reduced risk, raised productivity, increased efficiency, improved decisions, and enhanced market access. Participants argued that digital interventions all serve one or more of these, depending on specific local needs and situations. A critical factor underpinning what works in all these areas is the economic sustainability of the business models used to deliver value and services.

Book Synopsis Business models and key success drivers of agtech start-ups by : Lohento, Ken

Download or read book Business models and key success drivers of agtech start-ups written by Lohento, Ken. This book was released on 2019-12-04. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interpretative phenomenological research focuses on youth-led companies offering digital services to the agrofood sector in West Africa. Youth is considered as per the African Union definition: individuals aged between 15 and 35 years old. Our research questions were to understand the business models adopted by these start-ups; how their business models and business model innovation lead to business success; other key drivers that can support the achievement of success. With this study, we aim to contribute to the limited existing body of knowledge on this nascent but growing business field in West Africa. Though focused on West Africa, analyses go beyond and are of interest to any stakeholders interested in this subject in Africa in particular.

Book Synopsis ICT Update 91: Next-generation ACP agriculture – innovations that work by : CTA

Download or read book ICT Update 91: Next-generation ACP agriculture – innovations that work written by CTA. This book was released on 2019-06-30. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital as well as other technical and institutional innovations underpin the success of agriculture in developing countries in Africa, the Caribbean and the Pacific (ACP). Such innovations are encouraging a new generation of young ‘agripreneurs’ to tackle agri-food challenges, explore ways to build resilience to climate change, and improve the incomes and livelihoods of people in agriculture. This issue of ICT Update brings together selected experiences of agricultural practitioners working close to the ‘front line’, bringing innovation and next-generation ideas to agriculture for development projects, and helping them reach, benefit and empower smallholder producers, leading to sustainable change.

Book Synopsis Enhancing next-generation ACP agribusiness through digitalisation by : Ballantyne, Peter G.

Download or read book Enhancing next-generation ACP agribusiness through digitalisation written by Ballantyne, Peter G.. This book was released on 2019-03-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do innovative digital solutions improve the performance, competitiveness and profitability of farmer-oriented agribusinesses in African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) countries? Thirty practitioners attending a recent CTA workshop zoomed in on real cases to test this question, assessing what works, how and why and drawing out insights and lessons – actionable knowledge – for wider application. Workshop participants identified five intersecting drivers that explain why farmer-oriented agribusinesses invest in digitalisation: to reduce risk, raise productivity, increase efficiency, improve decisions, and enhance access to markets. Participants argued that digital interventions all serve one or more of these, depending on specific local needs and situations. A critical factor underpinning success or failure in these areas is the sustainability of the business models used to deliver value and services.

Book Synopsis Managing the sustainability of digital agriculture projects by : Pilgrim, Valarie

Download or read book Managing the sustainability of digital agriculture projects written by Pilgrim, Valarie. This book was released on 2019-03-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent CTA workshop on ‘catalysing actionable knowledge to enhance next-generation ACP agribusiness through digitalisation’ identified five intersecting drivers that explain what farmer-oriented agribusiness expect to achieve by investing in digitalisation: reduce risk, raise productivity, increase efficiency, improve decisions, and enhance market access. Participants argued that digital interventions all serve one or more of these, depending on specific local needs and situations. A critical factor underpinning what works in all these areas is the economic sustainability of the business models used to deliver value and services. This brief by Valarie Pilgrim argues that the sustainability of digital agribusiness projects can be enhanced through three main steps: 1) plan for sustainability in the initial project design, 2) monitor sustainability readiness throughout the life-cycle of the project, and 3) verify that indicators of sustainability have been achieved during the project close-off process.
