what Divisi does

A season turns on six decisions

Get these six right and the losses shrink — and the yield holds up season after season.

Every crop and its expected yield are scored against your own field with the FAO's Global Agro-Ecological Zones method — what governments plan with — on thirty years of climate records.

Also consider: ranked alternatives for this plot — hot pepper, robusta coffee and garlic, each able to grow here with care
Watch out for: the pests and diseases to scout for this crop, from aphids to powdery mildew
Know what to grow

Which crops will thrive on your land

Nobody hands you the soil, climate and terrain figures for your field, and a crop that never suited it costs a whole season. Divisi reads all three, ranks the crops that thrive on yours, and gives the yield to expect from each.

Ground truth

See what happened on the farm without being there

You send money home for seed and fertiliser, then wait to hear how the week went. Divisi closes each job with a date, a name and a photo, and books every cost and sale against the crop it belongs to.

Fewer losses to the weather

Days of warning before the dry spell or the storm

A dry spell at flowering or a storm overnight decides the loss before anyone hears it coming. Divisi reads the seven-day forecast for the field you pinned and warns you days ahead, in time to hold off the spraying or clear the drainage.

Numbered how-to steps from a Divisi task guide
The how, week by week

Know what to do this week, and exactly how

General advice is written for a whole district, not for the field you are standing in. Divisi builds your week for your own field — the job, the reason, the steps — and reminds everyone on the farm as each one falls due.

Records, not memory

Know which crop paid, and what made the difference

A good season you cannot explain is a season you cannot repeat. Log the work with photos, log every cost and sale, and see the profit each crop made — still there years later, and solid enough for a buyer or a lender.

An agronomist to ask

The answer does not have to wait for a visit

An agronomist or extension officer is rarely within reach, and a question can wait weeks. Ask in the Farmer Hive and farmers growing the same crop answer, with Divisi's agronomists in the thread.

Common Questions

Yes — that is what Divisi is for. Add your manager, your workers or your family to the farm and everyone works from the same season plan. They mark each job done as they finish it, and it lands in the farm record with the date, their name and a photograph taken at the time — so you can see that Tuesday's weeding happened, what the fertiliser cost, and what the maize looked like this morning. It replaces the daily phone call with something you can look back on.

Every amount spent and every sale made goes into the farm ledger against the crop and field it belongs to, in the currency it actually happened in. So the transfer you send stops ending at the receipt: you can see the total that went in, the total that came back, and which crop earned it. Nobody has to reconstruct a season from memory in December.

A farm notebook is a genuinely good habit. But a notebook only remembers — it can't tell you a hailstorm is three days out, or add a season of receipts into a figure that shows how much profit your groundnuts made. Divisi keeps the same notes with photos, offline and backed up, still there years later — then does the parts a book can't: it reminds you, it totals the season, and it tells you what the weather is about to do.

Yes — fully. Once your farm is set up, your crop advice, planting calendars and farm diary all live on the phone — log a job, check a recommendation, look back at your history, with zero bundles. It syncs the moment you're back online.

Yes. Divisi watches the forecast for your actual field and tells you early when frost, a heat spike, a storm or a dry spell is coming — with the step to take while there is still time, so the crop comes through in good shape.

Yes, completely. Every feature is free for every farmer — crop recommendations, the full guides and task reminders, the farm diary, the ledger, the Farmer Hive and 7-day weather. No paid tier, no trial clock, no card on file. Divisi is funded by the organisations that run outgrower programmes on it — not by charging you, and not by selling your data.
