Digital technologies are increasingly seen as important drivers of the modernisation of the agriculture and food sector in Africa. They come from a growing local start-up and founder scene and often address known issues of the sector (e.g. availability of consulting services, market access for smallholders, improvement of cultivation and harvesting methods, etc.).
Alarmed by a potential rise in food insecurity during the COVID-19 pandemic, many countries and organizations are mounting special efforts to keep agriculture safely running as an essential business, markets well supplied in affordable and nutritious food, and consumers still able to access and purchase food despite movement restrictions and income losses.
