Every farm has a structured record. Every record follows the farm.
The farm profile is the foundational artefact: drawn boundary on Google Maps, parcels, irrigation, sheds, equipment, livestock, labour. Every other agri workflow (visits, diagnostics, funding readiness, marketplace presence) sits on top of the farm profile.
One of thirteen workflows in the Agriculture layer. All connected to the same growth record.
Why it exists, and how it operates.
The farm profile captures what is on the farm and where it sits. Operator or extension officer draws the farm boundary on Google Maps, then records infrastructure (sheds, irrigation, fencing, processing), equipment register, livestock counts by category, labour and seasonal workforce, water rights and access.
The profile updates over time. New equipment is logged. Livestock counts change with intake, sale, and mortality. Infrastructure investments are captured. The profile evolves into a longitudinal record of the farm as an operation.
For lenders, the farm profile underpins the asset position. For programmes, it is the baseline. For the operator, it is the canonical record of their own business.
How it works in the field.
- 01
Profile created
Initial capture: farm name, owner, location, registration, contact, primary commodities.
Mothusi AI - 02
Boundary drawn on Google Maps
Operator or extension officer draws the farm polygon directly on Google Maps. No surveyor required.
Google Maps - 03
Infrastructure and equipment captured
Sheds, irrigation, processing, machinery. Photo-stamped, dated, valued where applicable.
Field workflow - 04
Livestock and labour recorded
Headcount per category, calving cycle, seasonal workforce, key roles.
Production record - 05
Verification
Extension officer or programme visit verifies the captured profile. Discrepancies flagged for re-capture.
Field workflow - 06
Ongoing updates
Profile updates with each cycle, each major investment, each new lease, each livestock intake or sale.
Growth record
What this workflow produces.
Each item below is a structured artefact written to the operator's growth record. Programme officers, funders, buyers, and the operator themselves can read and act on every one.
- Farm profile document (structured)
- Drawn boundary on Google Maps
- Infrastructure and asset register
- Livestock and labour record
- Land-use classification
- Verification trail per update
Different audiences. Same workflow output.
| Audience | Value delivered |
|---|---|
| Farmers | A canonical record of their own farm, exportable any time, owned by them. |
| Lenders | Asset position and farm scale visible at decision time, not reconstructed from claims. |
| Programmes | Cohort-level visibility into farm sizes, infrastructure quality, and commodity mix. |
| Insurers | Structured baseline for policy underwriting and claim verification. |
