Climate Smart Coffee is a climate resilience program for smallholder coffee farmers that provides a combination of low-cost index insurance to cover extreme weather events, adaptive advisory to manage pest and disease risks as weather changes, and climate smart agriculture packages to build resilience from the soil up.
Sprout uses AI and satellite data to build climate risk management tools for farmers. Looking historically at the relationship of climate data to production data, climate risk can be understood and priced. Sprout offers programs that include insurance, adaptive advisory and climate smart agriculture programs. Sprout Alerts are weekly messages sent to farmers with forecasted rainfall data paired with agronomy advice for any pest and disease.
