Nokia launches service for Kenyan farmers
Nokia is launching a new service to offer prompt weather and agriculture-related information to farmers to enhance their preparedness in ensuring optimal food production.
Through the Nokia Life Tools, rural-based communities and persons living in small towns will now be able to receive regular updates on climatic changes; farm input and farm produce prices on their mobile phones, empowering them to make quick and informed decisions that will enhance their productivity.
Through partnerships with organisations like the Kenya Meterological Department regular tips can be sent to farmers, through Nokia Life Tools, on changing weather patterns, while agro-based organisations could provide information to help farmers update farming techniques or indicate prevailing market conditions that could help prevent future food shortages. Nokia will work with local and regional organisations to provide the local content required that will be sent through the Nokia devices.
