Details

UmojaAgri is an AI-powered agricultural logistics platform that addresses the problem of food spoilage in Africa due to poor road conditions, unpredictable travel times, lack of real-time freshness tracking, and inefficient logistics coordination. The platform calculates a 'Freshness Window' - a real-time countdown that determines whether produce will arrive at its destination before spoilage risk becomes critical. By combining logistics tracking, rule-based intelligence, and supply-chain visibility, UmojaAgri provides predictive insights to help farmers and transporters make more informed decisions and reduce post-harvest losses. The goal is to create a comprehensive system that improves the efficiency and sustainability of the agricultural supply chain in Africa.
