All About Group Farming
This service allows you to start farming with minimal capital or skills because you are connected with several others like you, pooling the small resources to make a fund large enough to run a complete project.
Group Farming
Solves Many Problems
Group Farming is one solution for several unique problems. You can use it because you have limited capital. You can also use it to gain farming skills before starting your own project. Finally, you can use it to diversify your investment in different crops or different seasons rather than tying up all your money farming in one project.
How Group Farming Works
Agriculture is capital intensive. For example, farming a crop like bulb onions can cost up to Ksh200,000 per acre, that covers just the seeds, labor, fertilizers, irrigating, pest and weed control. Raising all that may not be that easy.
Group farming is a special tool to help you achieve what you cannot on your own. For example, you can use your Ksh20,000 to farm these onions. Espring Farm provides essential tools bringing you together with 9 other people so that each one of you can contribute their Ksh20,000 to build up the necessary capital for the whole project. The farming projects are managed transparently ensuring everything runs smoothly and everyone gets their fair share at the end of the project.
Benefits
– instead of borrowing loans, build yourself up with the little you have
– Practical skills beat any theory you can learn in farming. Participate via group farming to gain such practical skills
– yes you can farm a very small portion like an 1/8 acre, bt you’d lose all the economies of scale
– Group farming allows you to try farming as a part time gig (i.e. it eliminates the common misconception that farming is like a lifestyle, something you do permanently)
Group Options
There are two broad approaches to the group farming option
Self-Arranged Groups
You and your friends or colleagues form a group, contribute money and start your farming project at Espring Farm. The group members have absolute control over the project - Espring Farm only provides general assistance.
Espring-Managed Groups
Espring Farm organizes farming projects and invites individuals to join in and contribute capital to facilitate the project. These projects are fully managed by Espring Farm but members are involved in every major decision making process.
