AI Assistant for
Avocado Growers

Monthly calls for improved yields, reduced losses, and export-ready crops.

The Advantage of Kenyan Avocados

Kenya is Africa's leading avocado exporter, with more than 150,000 smallholder farmers driving the sector. The annual harvest generates more than 20 billion Kenyan shillings, with growing demand in Europe, China, and the Middle East.

Falling prices due to excess supply.

Market volatility causes economic losses for farmers when exports are delayed or there is an oversupply.

Fruit flies, thrips and fungal diseases

Pests and diseases cause significant damage to avocado crops, reducing yield and quality.

High post-harvest losses

Poor handling practices lead to significant quality deterioration and rejection in export markets.

Improper use or underuse of inputs

Lack of timely data and advice leads to inappropriate use of agricultural inputs and lower productivity.

The Challenge

Despite Kenya's strong position in avocado exports, farmers face market volatility, pest outbreaks, and ineffective information systems.

These challenges cause an estimated KSh 2.2 billion in avoidable annual losses, affecting the livelihoods of more than 150,000 farming families.
