Phase of Innovation: Pilot

Sauti Market Insights

Clarity and foresight for East Africa’s agricultural commodity networks, infrastructure, and markets

Our price data includes daily price assessments of the physical forward market, reflecting reliable values for the current and future market ahead. Forecasting for price-based decision-making; up-to-date valuation of inventories; market systems monitoring and evaluations; and spot price references.

East Africa's agricultural markets are extremely vulnerable to the impacts of climate volatility in several areas of its agricultural value-chains. Especially in areas of predominantly rain-fed farming systems and poor market information, dramatic supply-side shocks result in a harmful pass-through effect from climate volatility to price volatility. Within this volatile climate context, farmers, traders, and wholesalers have few means to learn of, and plan for predicted market volatility events. Our innovation deploys an machine-learning and AI-powered market intelligence platform that provides real-time price monitoring, short and long-term price forecasts, risk assessments, logistics planning, and volatility metrics. We expect to empower traders, farmers, and the organizations that support them (farmer facing organizations), with the market intelligence they need to adapt to climate-related shocks and ultimately reduce the market uncertainties in East Africa's agricultural value-chains.
