Frequently asked questions
Can AI really help identify pests from a description?
Yes. You describe the crop, the leaf or fruit damage and the stage of growth, and the AI suggests likely pests or diseases with treatment options — then you confirm with an agronomist before acting.
Does the course know Kenyan conditions?
Prompts are written for Kenya: maize, beans, tomatoes, potatoes and livestock, with weather-based planting decisions and local market-day strategies.
I farm on a small plot. Is this relevant?
Smallholders are the core audience. The prompts are short, phone-friendly and free to run on a basic smartphone.
