Making mechanization work for African farmers.
TracTrac connects farmers to tractors and other equipment when they need them, while giving equipment owners, agents and service providers the tools to keep those machines working.
The work so far
Our work is already transforming
mechanization across Africa
Better access to mechanization can change how quickly work gets done, how many farmers a machine can serve and how many people can build livelihoods around the sector.

How TracTrac works
It takes more than a tractor to make mechanization work.
- Farmers need machinery.
- Equipment owners need demand.
- Service providers need customers.
- Young people need opportunities.
- The sector needs skills, finance and strong partnerships.
TracTrac connects the pieces.
Core service network
TracTrac connects the four roles that move machinery from the farmer who needs it to the field where the work happens.
Each one depends on the others. The network is what turns scattered demand into work that actually gets done.
Equipment Owners
Keep machinery available and working.
Farmers
Need mechanization services and request the service.
Booking Agents
Bring nearby farmer demand together.
Mechanization Service Providers
Take the job and deliver it on the ground.
The Enabling environment
The wider system that lets the network work at scale.
Cooperatives
Organise local mechanization businesses.
Finance & Investors
Put capital behind machinery.
Government & Regulators
Shape the operating environment.
Development Partners
Support effective models to grow.
Equipment Owners
Put your machinery to work.
Enlist your equipment, complete verification and connect your machines to farmer demand.

More ways to get the work done
The job changes. So does the equipment.
A farmer may need one machine for land preparation and a completely different tool later in the season.
TracTrac is being built around the work farmers need to get done, not around one type of machine.
Land preparation
Ploughing, harrowing and ridging with tractor mounted implements.
Planting
Seeding and planting with matched implements.
Spraying
Crop protection with smaller powered equipment.
Irrigation and fertiliser application
Keeping the crop supplied through the season.
Harvest and post harvest
Harvesting, threshing and soil testing services.
Haulage and transport
Moving inputs to the farm and produce to market.
The people behind mechanization
Mechanization needs skilled people too.
A machine is only useful when people can operate it, maintain it, organise demand and build a reliable service around it.
TracTrac invests in practical training and opportunities for young people, women and mechanization service providers so more communities have the people needed to keep machinery working.

Inside the TracTrac Mechanisation Investment Roadshow: What's at Stake for Nigerian Agriculture
For years, the conversation around agricultural mechanisation in Nigeria has centered on this question: how do we get more tractors into the hands of farmers? But the more we have worked within the mechanisation ecosystem, the clearer it has become that the challenge is bigger than tractors.
