About The Customer
Hello Tractor is a social enterprise that is improving food and income security by building a network of “Smart Tractor” owners that farmers obtain service from via SMS. This way, small landowners have access to affordable farm machine service
The Challenge

Hello tractor had designed an innovative, low-cost “smart tractor” specifically for small farmers' unique needs. Equipped with various attachments, owners can tailor its use for a variety of crops and stages of the production cycle, allowing them to serve their customers throughout the year. The GPS antenna allows hello tractor to track its usage and gather data on location, market trends, and uptake. Hello Tractor needed an application so that farmers could make use of these features effectively and efficiently.
