Empowering Farmers and
Unlocking Ghana's Agricultural
Potential
A revolutionary digital & innovative platform,
Agrospectrum connects farmers, traders, processors, and other stakeholders,
creating a seamless and efficient agro ecosystem.
AggregationProgram
The Aggregation module looks at ensuring convenience in the produce aggregation process. It allows aggregators to purchase produce from both farmers and community aggregators at the market rate.
The module uses an Internet-of-Things (IoT) system. Thus, it is integrated with hardware components to ensure that both the quality and quantity meet the right pricing. This solution is linked to the Broadspectrum Digital Payments platform, which is integrated with telcos to facilitate the payments being made to the farmers.

Input Subsidy Program
The Subsidy is a 7-step process, which begins with registration or on-boarding of farmers who are not already registered in the system, after which there is the establishment of the subsidy rate and allocation to beneficiaries.
Thereafter, a reconciliation and settlement system is also established to determine how beneficiaries will get access to the inputs. The subsidy module registers input supply chain members or providers like wholesalers and retailers to track the redemption process.

DataCollection
This is also known as the farmer registration process. The term KYC refers to Know Your Customer. The farmer KYC takes the farmer through an on-boarding process or registration where data and biometric entries are taken to allow the farmers to become integrated into a client’s system.
It was first used by the Ministry of Food and Agriculture (MOFA) for the E-Agric programme for the five northern regions of Ghana. The application is a mobile and web-based software, which all other institutions can adopt to collect data devoid of errors.
