AGRAYU: PhyGital Platform for Rural Agriculture

Start Date: 24/06/2025
End Date: N/A

Description

A non-reimbursable technical cooperation aimed at improving agricultural profitability and environmental sustainability in the Peruvian Amazon through a PhyGital (physical and digital) platform that combines AI-based personalized agronomic advisory with traceable distribution of agricultural inputs for small cacao producers in the provinces of Juanjui and Tocache (San Martín). The initiative integrates blockchain-based digital identity, a decentralized network of local entrepreneurs called "Inges Agrayu" with a gender focus, and satellite deforestation monitoring, targeting a 19% productivity increase and a 17% reduction in the local deforestation rate. It was selected through the Amazonía BioBuilders call (RG-O1711) and is framed within the IDB Group's Amazonía Siempre Program, with a projected scale-up to over 20,000 producer families across the Amazon region.
