Who is the buyer for this idea?

Smallholder farmer (0.5-5 hectares) with a mobile phone. Reach them through farmer-cooperative partnerships and radio + agent-network marketing. Skip broad SEO on day 1 — start where your first 20 customers already hang out.

How would you monetize it?

8-15% take rate + 4-8% credit spread. Pricing is the most under-thought step for these buyers, so anchor to the outcome you replace, not the tool you resemble.

African fertilizer prices tripled post-Ukraine — smallholders need credit + supply. That's the underlying shift — if it fades, so does the wedge.

What tech stack would you use?

Suggested stack: Next.js, Supabase, WhatsApp Business, and Flutterwave. You can build the v1 in weeks on this stack; the moat is workflow depth, not framework choice.

Who are the incumbents I'd be competing with?

Study Twiga Foods, Apollo Agriculture, and Complete Farmer — read their 1-star reviews, price ladder, and onboarding. That's where your positioning lives.
