In 2037, incredible population growth in Sub-Saharan Africa will drive the demand for the main agricultural product, cereal grains, higher and higher. Simultaneously, climate change will continue to reduce crop yield, forcing the smallholder farms that make up the economy to find new ways to make up for the loss.
The traditional storage and transportation methods used by smallholder grain farms in Sub-Saharan Africa can cause up to 50 percent loss of usable product. With very limited financial support, these farms need to increase the quality and lifespan of their grain to match the growing demand and successfully combat food insecurity in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Annum is a long term grain storage system that allows smallholder grain farmers to properly store their crops. This will drastically reduce grain loss due to mold, bacteria, and pests, and help combat the food insecurity that stems from it.
