What we do

Data-powered solutions for smarter farming

From soil sample to fertilizer plan, AgroSense turns raw soil data into decisions farmers can act on.

The problem

Over 70% of Nigerian smallholder farmers apply fertilizer without ever testing their soil.

That leads to yield losses of 30–50% and wasted income every season. Existing labs are expensive, slow, and hard to reach. AgroSense Africa closes that gap - testing on the farm, in a day, in language every farmer understands.

EB

Founder

AgroSense Africa was founded by Edikan Edet Batubo, a soil scientist who grew up watching farmers - including family members - spend scarce money on the wrong fertilizer simply because their crops looked unhealthy, with no way to know what their soil actually needed. That gap between agricultural science and the everyday farmer became the mission behind AgroSense Africa: affordable, on-farm soil intelligence that any farmer can act on immediately.

Testimonials

What farmers are saying

"AgroSense told us exactly what our soil needed - we stopped wasting money on fertilizer that wasn't even the right type."

Mr. Akaninyene Eno - Yene Garden

"I have been farming tomatoes for many years but never knew my soil could tell me what it needed. AgroSense came through our cooperative and tested my soil. By the same day I had a recommendation on my phone — which fertilizer, how much, and when to apply. My tomatoes were healthier and I had far less waste. I have already told three other women in my cooperative to use this service."

Nkoyo Okon - | Tomato Farmer, Edmam Multipurpose Cooperative Society, Akwa Ibom

"The report was explained to me in plain language - I didn't need anyone to translate it before I understood what to do."

Mfreke Bassey - Farmer, Akwa Ibom

"We used to apply the same fertilizer every season out of habit. AgroSense showed us what our soil actually needed instead."

David Inyang - Farmer, Akwa Ibom

"Our cooperative got tested as a group and the rate made it affordable for everyone, not just the bigger farms."

Emmanuel Peter - Cooperative member, Akwa Ibom

"I trusted the recommendation because it came from my own soil data, not a generic chart."

Anietie Okon - Farmer, Akwa Ibom

"On behalf of our members, we sincerely appreciate AgroSense Africa for bringing this service to our farmers. For years our members struggled with poor yields and wasted money on the wrong fertilizers. When AgroSense came and tested our farms, it was the first time many members had ever seen their soil results. The professionalism of the field agents and clarity of recommendations was impressive. We look forward to a continued partnership."

Imabasi Udofia - Secretary, Edmam Multipurpose Cooperative Society , Akwa Ibom

"The fertilizer plan told me exactly how much to apply and when - I stopped overspending on bags I didn't need."

Seno Umoh - Farmer, Akwa Ibom

"They recommended a crop I hadn't considered, and it turned out to be the best-performing plot on my farm this season."

Idara Akpan - Farmer, Akwa Ibom

"As someone without formal training, I appreciated that they explained everything without technical jargon."

Imo Ben - Farmer, Akwa Ibom

"The advisory visit helped me plan my whole season instead of just reacting crop by crop."

Aniekpeno Akpan - Farmer, Akwa Ibom

"They connected me to a supplier who actually had the right product in stock, based on what my soil test showed."
