Our mission is to mainstream technologies for sustainable agriculture in Africa by equipping climate vulnerable communities with advanced technology, infrastructure and sustainable practices, empowering them to produce food efficiently, anywhere, despite climate challenges.

Smartel is remodeling food production in climate-arid areas with climate-smart hydroponic systems. Our goal is to help end hunger by empowering both smallholder farmers and urban dwellers to grow fresh produce in any location.

The Problem

Global Hunger

690 million people face hunger daily, including 45% of Africa's population.

Farmer Challenges

Climate change, water scarcity, and soil degradation threaten smallholder farmers.

Refugee Struggles

Refugee communities lack land and resources for food security.

What We Do

Our strength lies in the fusion of our technology and sustainable model to solve the problem of hunger and food production, especially in climate-arid regions.

Designing IoT based hydroponic systems

We design and deploy solar-powered, IoT-enabled hydroponic systems that optimize water use, boost crop yields, and make precision farming accessible to smallholder farmers.

Agri-technology Transfer

We bridge the gap between cutting-edge agricultural technology and farmers by adapting, localizing, and delivering smart solutions that meet real-world farming challenges.

Research

Our team leads ongoing research into climate-resilient agriculture, precision farming, and AI-driven farm management to keep advancing sustainable food production.

Quality Training and consultation 

We provide hands-on training and expert consultation to farmers, cooperatives, and agri-entrepreneurs, ensuring they have the skills and support needed to thrive in the modern agricultural economy.
