We’re happy to highlight our partnership with AGRA to support resilience and productivity for small-scale farmers in Mali’s Sikasso and Koulikoro regions. By combining innovative agricultural insurance with satellite data, historical insights, and farm-level inputs, we are empowering farmers to adapt to climate challenges and improve yields. In Mali, agriculture makes up over 36% of GDP and employs 80% of the population, but extreme weather events and limited access to financial resources have often held back farming potential. Through this project, smallholder farmers gain access to insurance, allowing them to adopt new farming techniques and even secure loans for necessary inputs. #AGRA #Pula#MaliAgriculture #ClimateResilience #SustainableFarming #AgriculturalInsurance #FoodSecurity #Africa

We are very proud of our team's work, and thank you, Mercy Corps AgriFin for your support along the way!

🎙️🌍 Want to learn how Pula empowers women farmers to build resilience against climate risks through innovative solutions? Tune in to the full interview with Rose hosted by Women’s World Banking to hear how we’re driving change in agriculture.  https://shorturl.at/LXDkK

🍽️ World Food Day: Building Resilience in Agriculture for a Sustainable Future Climate change is set to disrupt food production globally, and according to the Food and Agriculture Organization, agricultural yields could decrease by up to 30% by 2050, with regions like sub-Saharan Africa particularly vulnerable. This has significant implications for women, who play a pivotal role in the three pillars of food security: food production, distribution, and utilization. At Pula, we recognize that empowering women farmers with the right tools, like agricultural insurance, is essential to building resilience and securing food futures for communities most at risk. In fact, 39% of the farmers we serve are women, a testament to our commitment to bridging the gender gap in access to financial services. 🔜 Tomorrow, we are thrilled to share that the Women's World Banking will launch a podcast, “Climate Change Solutions: How One Fintech is Insuring Women Farmers’ Futures,” featuring our very own Rose Goslinga. 🌍🎙️ Rose will discuss how Pula is driving change and empowering women farmers to thrive despite climate risks through innovative insurance solutions. Stay tuned for an inspiring conversation that highlights the critical link between financial inclusion, women’s empowerment, and food security. #WorldFoodDay2024 #FoodResilience #ClimateResilience #WomenInAgriculture #FintechForGood #AgriculturalInsurance #PulaAdvisors #ClimateSolutions #WomenFarmers

🌍🇺🇬 Happy Independence Day, Uganda! 🎉 As we celebrate 62 years of Uganda’s independence, we’re excited to announce that Pula Advisors has been featured in the International Trade Centre European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) handbook for our impactful work in Uganda. Through mapping farmers with GPS coordinates and working with our partner aBi - Agricultural Business Initiative and Uganda Coffee Development Authority (UCDA), we are empowering 1.8 million smallholder coffee farmers to adopt sustainable agricultural practices that meet EUDR compliance standards, ensuring their access to EU markets while protecting Uganda’s forests. 🌱 Why does this matter? The EUDR prohibits exports to the EU if the commodities cannot be proven to have been produced on land free from deforestation. Since over 60% of Uganda 's coffee is shipped to the EU, our innovative solutions help farmers protect their livelihoods and the environment at the same time Fun Fact: Agriculture employs 70% of Uganda’s population! By driving innovation, we are supporting farmers in securing their futures and enhancing food security across the region. 🙌 Learn more about Pula's solution for EUDR compliance https://lnkd.in/d_XSMbiX #UgandaIndependenceDay #EUDR #Sustainability #AgricultureInnovation #PulaAdvisors #ClimateResilience #SmallholderFarmers #Impact #farmertraceability #coffee
