Understanding The Problem

Farmers sign supply agreements with restaurants and buyers, but once the contract is signed, communication collapses. There's no delivery transparency, no harvest readiness signal for buyers, and no shared record when the two sides disagree, just competing paper logs and phone calls.

Research & discovery

Contextual interviews with farmers in rural areas surfaced the real risk window: the gap between harvest and buyer confirmation, when the work is done but there's zero visibility into what happens next. Competitive analysis showed most agritech apps design for urban buyers first, leaving farmer-facing sides as an afterthought, despite low literacy and intermittent connectivity being the norm, not the edge case.

Research & Discovery

Design decisions

The visual language stays deliberately minimal, clean white surfaces, green as the sole action color, chosen for its universal "confirmed/safe" meaning that reduces cognitive load during stressful harvesting conditions. A low-electricity village kiosk keeps the system usable where infrastructure can't be assumed.

Outcome & reflection

Surfacing delivery data, contract terms, and payment status in one place removed the trust premium middlemen used to absorb.

Key design learning

If revisiting this project, a voice first mode where farmers query delivery status by speaking, would be the next meaningful feature. The reading barrier is real, removing it entirely is the natural next step.

By surfacing delivery data, contract progress, and payment signals in one app, both farmers and buyers gained the shared context needed to operate without middlemen absorbing the trust premium.



"In low-literacy contexts, hierarchy matters more than information density. Stripping back to one primary action per screen was the decision that changed everything."
