Agriculture is Africa’s biggest employer. In eastern Africa, 70% of the population and most people living in extreme poverty make a living from farming.

Building on over 30 years’ experience of working with African farmers, Farm Africa focuses on unleashing the productive power of Africa’s smallholder farmers, who manage 80% of the continent’s farmland.

At Emsea farm, Working with farmers is our passion. Emsea farm helps farmers make the most of their land. We share our expertise in growing the most appropriate and profitable crops.

We help farmers prevent pests and act as a bridge with suppliers: we ensure farmers gain access to the high-quality seed  and seedlings for various trees, food crops and grass .

At Emsea, we believe one good harvest is not enough. We take a long-term view to help farmers achieve good harvests year after year. We work with them to better manage their resources, to improve soil quality, to conserve water and to improve their lawn and yards.

Increasing yields is only half the equation when it comes to increasing farmers’ incomes. We help them secure best possible returns due to our consistent training on planting methods and techniques.

Climate change is an additional challenge to effective farming in Africa. We work with them to plan for the long term, especially for climate shocks, like flooding or drought.
