Hundred Acre Hub is the beginning of a new green future in Small Acreage Farm Automation.
What is Small Acreage Farm?
Any farm that is small enough for a single operator to turn a profit is small acreage. It could be a 10 acres fruit orchard or a 1/4 acre urban farm.
The definition of ‘small acreage’ differs from state to state in the United States and from country to country globally. At Hundred Acre Hub, we consider any single operator farm business to be a Small Acreage Operation.
Why automate small acreages?
Labour is getting scarce and more expensive. A small farm cannot capture economies of scale and mechanization isn’t always optimizable for small acreage farms.
For young future farmers who have been raised with smart phones and drones, automation offers a viable path to a socially and environmentally responsible farm future for humans, animals, birds, bees and habitat.
JOIN US IN OUR JOURNEY TO SHOWCASE AND CELEBRATE FARMERS, TECHNOLOGISTS AND DREAMERS.
Our proposed online platform is aimed at small acreage farmers who are interested in using AI, technology, and robotics to improve their farming practices. The platform will facilitate the formation of cohorts of farmers who collectively farm 100 acres together, with the aim of sharing the costs of production, packaging, marketing, sales, and back-end services. Our platform will provide access to experienced mentors who can offer personalized guidance and support to help farmers implement the latest farming technologies and techniques, resulting in increased yields and profitability.
Small acreage farmers often face a number of challenges when it comes to integrating AI, technology, and robotics into their farms. These technologies can be expensive and complex, making them difficult for individual farmers to implement on their own. Our online platform aims to help small acreage farmers overcome these challenges by facilitating the formation of cohorts of farmers who can share the costs of implementing these technologies.
Target Market:
Our target market is small acreage farmers who are interested in using AI, technology, and robotics to improve their farming practices. This includes farmers who may not have access to the latest technologies due to financial or logistical constraints, as well as those who are new to farming and want to start their operations on the right foot.
Services Offered:
Our online platform will offer a range of services, including:
Facilitating the formation of cohorts of farmers who collectively farm 100 acres together.
Providing access to experienced mentors who specialize in integrating AI, technology, and robotics into farming practices.
Access to educational resources, such as webinars and online courses, on the latest farming technologies and techniques.
A centralized marketplace where farmers can sell their products to consumers.
Access to back-end services such as packaging, marketing, and sales support.
Key Resources:
Our key resources will include:
Web development: The website will need to be built and maintained by a team of developers.
Mentor recruitment: We will need to identify and onboard experienced mentors who specialize in integrating AI, technology, and robotics into farming practices.
Marketing and user acquisition: We will need to develop and implement a marketing strategy to attract users to the platform.
Back-end services: We will need to establish partnerships with packaging, marketing, and sales support providers.
Our proposed online platform for small acreage farmers who are interested in using AI, technology, and robotics in their farms is an innovative solution to a growing problem. By facilitating the formation of cohorts of farmers, we aim to help farmers share the costs of implementing these technologies, making them more accessible and affordable. We believe that our platform has the potential to transform the small acreage farming industry and we look forward to bringing it to market.
