FARMER SECURITY IS NATIONAL SECURITY
Smallholder farmers is a type of farmers the world relies on for food systems’ operational diversity, whose stewardship of farmland is most financially painful, and whose commitment to agriculture exemplifies human resilience. Numanac’s mission is to achieve knowledge hyperconnectivity in agriculture to amplify resilience and revenue opportunities for agricultural operators.
Operational Diversity
Empowering smallholder farmers to preserve diverse, often generational farming practices protect our nation from the ever-growing threats to food security.
Rural Financial Security
Small farmers activate rural communities as employers and as participants in local job markets. To empower them is to empower and preserve rural communities.
Supply Chain Resilience
A monopolized supply chain is a risk to producers, consumers, and to the nation. Uplifting small farmers (producers) will create a healthy market that prioritizes consumers.
