Build a clean, accessible UI that farmers can pick up and learn (e.g. Simplicity > Robustness)
Help our farmers make a living! Using LiteFarm allows farmers to:
Get paid for their environmental services (PES)
Where possible, integrate with PES providers to make the process seamless
Where impossible, export relevant data to make the process easier
Record as much of the data they need for your certification (Organic or otherwise) as possible
Where possible, integrate with certifiers to make the process seamless
Where impossible, export relevant data to make the process easier
Give farmers the access to expert knowledge and tools they need to run a successful farm! LiteFarm participates in and integrates with open source consortia to:
Pre-populate as much of the app with existing data and ontologies (e.g. seeds, varieties, implements, methods, etc.) as possible to satisfy #1 and suggest best approaches to farmers
Outsource the heavy lifting / modelling / calculations to other open source software services (see /wiki/spaces/LITEFARM/pages/1703965 for a more complete listing) dedicated to that domain (e.g. LandPKS for soil health, Cool Farm Tool for GHGs, etc.) and give the farmers the insights they need to make the right choices for their farm
