Renfed is an Agritech platform that connects farmers to buyers using a social media-like approach. With a network of farmers, Renfed aims to change the entire agricultural supply chain ecosystem by connecting farmers to buyers and enabling them to transact and interact seamlessly.
Codegres was approached by Renfed to help build a mobile app that would enable farmers to communicate with each other, get weather updates, find buyers and sellers, and manage their crops.
The Challenge
Renfed’s primary objective was to connect farmers to buyers via a social media-like platform. Renfed wanted to create an ecosystem where farmers could interact, transact, and learn about their particular crops.
The challenge for Codegres was to build a mobile app that would enable farmers to access information, interact with each other, and transact with buyers seamlessly. The app had to be easy to use and accessible to farmers in rural areas.
The Solution
Codegres worked closely with Renfed to build an app that would enable farmers to connect, interact, and transact. The app was designed to be user-friendly and accessible to farmers in rural areas.
Here are some of the features that Codegres built for Renfed:
Home: The home screen of the app allows farmers to like, comment, and share posts uploaded by other farmers and upload their own posts. Each post can be a photo or a video. Farmers can click on any profile to view more details about another farmer/buyer.
News: The news section of the app allows farmers to get weather updates, including hourly and daily forecasts. The app also provides access to Renfed-generated content.
My Network: The My Network section of the app allows farmers to access circles – groups of farmers who can communicate with each other. Farmers can share a post with the public or limited to a circle.
Service: The service section of the app enables farmers to make service requests to Renfed in order to complete any particular task. The list of services currently enabled includes logistics request, find buyer, find seller, agri-consulting, need seeds, need farm equipment, crop management, and another request.
Profile: The Profile section of the app enables farmers to edit their profile and showcase any crop. Farmers can log in and log out via phone numbers and share the app with other users.
Misc: Renfed is available in multiple languages, making it accessible to farmers who may not be fluent in English.
The Result
The app developed by Codegres has been a game-changer for Renfed. The app has enabled farmers to connect with each other, share information, and transact with buyers seamlessly. The app has also enabled Renfed to build a community of like-minded people, making it easier for farmers to learn about their particular crops and make informed decisions regarding what crop to harvest, how long to harvest, what season, what manure, etc.
The app has also enabled Renfed to find the right buyer at the right time of harvest, helping farmers sell their crops and get a fair price for their produce.
Conclusion
Codegres has worked closely with Renfed to build an app that has enabled farmers to connect, interact, and transact seamlessly. The app has been a game-changer for Renfed, enabling them to create a community of like-minded people and connect farmers to buyers seamlessly.
