Roju Agro-Vault’s pay-with-produce agritech stack
An Ibadan-built agricultural platform pairing solar farm hardware, AI advisory tools, smart storage, and a harvest-based payment model for Nigerian smallholders.
Field notes
Roju describes a modular system combining GrainGuard storage monitoring, solar irrigation, an automatic backpack sprayer, and a beta web application. The app is presented as using GPS, soil type, weather, crop photographs, voice, multilingual support, and USSD/SMS access. The homepage reports 20+ early-access farmers, four supported crops, and six months of field testing in Kishi, while its proposed payment model takes 5% of a farmer’s seasonal harvest rather than an upfront fee.
