Wakama Edge Ventures CI

From the farm field to the institutional decision.

Wakama connects farmers, cooperatives, field data and institutions in Côte d’Ivoire to make agricultural operations readable, verifiable and monitored. We build the evidence; institutions keep the decision.

01 /Mission

Making agriculture readable for institutions.

Agricultural finance, insurance and support often lack reliable information more than willingness.

  • 01

    Mission

    Enable institutions to finance, insure and support more farmers without building the whole field and data infrastructure themselves.

  • 02

    Vision

    Become a layer of trust between West African farmland and the institutions that finance, insure or support it.

  • 03

    Method

    Observe, verify, analyse, document and monitor: every piece of information keeps its source, status and date.

02 /Doctrine

Wakama documents. The institution decides.

Wakama is a B2B technology and operations provider. This division of roles underpins every engagement.

Wakama provides

  • Verified field data
  • Wakama Score
  • Idjor summary
  • Audit trail
  • Monitoring
  • Reporting

The institution retains

  • Credit policy
  • Credit committee
  • Final decision
  • Financing terms
  • Disbursement
  • Regulatory responsibility

What Wakama does not do

  • Lend or take deposits
  • Insure or settle claims
  • Take a credit decision in place of an institution
  • Publish an institution’s data

03 / Field presence

The field, our first source of truth.

Cooperative meetings, onboarding sessions, demonstrations and conversations with farmers: Wakama’s data is built where agricultural risk is understood.
