Core Impact Metric: Increased income for farmers

Grant to support regional scale-up across Cameroon

Grassland Cameroon’s core business is supporting small scale maize farmers to grow more, using regenerative agriculture techniques that help support their long-term soil health, and ultimately, produce more yield on the same land they’ve been cultivating.

Why Rippleworks Invested:

Grassland is just entering into their scale journey, but we believe they have a path to reaching an increasing number of farmers every year with transformative impacts on their income in a country that is consistently overlooked.
