Mechanization and moisture tracking for teff, wheat, maize, and sorghum.
Staple grains form the foundation of Ethiopia's national food security. Achieving ambitious self-sufficiency targets requires maximizing field yields and protecting harvested grains through robust, climate-resilient storage networks.
Traditional ox-trampling or manual harvesting shatters grains, causing up to 20% loss directly in the field.
Without subsurface sensors, farmers miscalculate planting windows and suffer severe drought stress.
Poorly sealed silos lacking atmospheric control allow weevils and fungi to decimate stored reserves.
Inefficient manual weeding consumes massive labor hours, stunting grain growth during critical early stages.
