While agriculture is central to Nepal’s economy with more than 60 percent engaged in farming, it is still not able to produce enough to support its population. Multiple factors contribute to low agricultural productivity in Nepal including difficult terrain, scant technology and inputs, poor market facilities and services for farmers that increase the cost of productivity. This video captures UNCDF’s partnership with Sunfarmer for an innovative agribusiness solution. This partnership primarily focused on supporting smallholder farmers at all levels of the value chain with digital solutions and payment for agricultural inputs, logistics and sales, and pay-as-you-go irrigation solution as one of the core components of the value chain.
