See what paysKeep your farm's books

Advice is easy to give. Numbers are harder to fake.

Every village has someone who knows what the best maize farmer does differently. Kijilimo lets that farmer show it, with the figures from their own books.

A post marked Verified from books carries the earned, spent and made figures straight from the farmer's records. A post backed by geotagged photos shows the work was really done on a real plot. Everything else is talk, and it is labelled as talk.

Learn

Follow the crops you grow

Pick a crop and see what farmers who shared their books typically earn, spend and make on it, and the range between the best and the rest.

Read what the farmers behind the numbers say they did, follow them, and ask them questions once you sign in.

Keep your books

Your farm's records, on your phone

Record stock in and out of the store, work done and what each worker is owed, sales, and money in by M-Pesa, bank or cash, as it happens.

Each crop shows what it earned, spent and made, so you see which one pays before the season ends.

Share on your terms

Nothing leaves your farm unless you say so

Share a crop's results with other farmers anonymously or under your farm's name. Nothing shows on this website unless you switch it on, and the location of your farm is never shown.
