Information Management PROJECTS
Kimetrica developed a partnership database for The Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA) Scaling Seeds and Technologies Partnership. The purpose of the database was to significantly ease the collation, management, analysis, dissemination and archiving of data from the target countries (Ethiopia, Tanzania, Ghana, Malawi, Mozambique and Senegal), using a mix of both online and offline applications. In addition, Kimetrica provided an efficient platform for carrying out surveys with simple to use tools, like tablets and smartphones, to integrate with offline and online applications.

Research and Evaluation PROJECTS
The Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA) works to achieve food security in Africa through the promotion of rapid, sustainable, agricultural growth with a focus on smallholder farmers. AGRA aims to ensure that smallholders have what they need to succeed: good seeds and healthy soil, access to markets, information, financing, storage, transport, and policies that provide them with comprehensive support. To help AGRA measure the impact of its initiatives, Kimetrica's monitoring and evaluation team developed survey instruments and methods for baseline surveys in 10 countries in Africa. The project included the development of survey tools to capture results-based metrics for measuring the impact of AGRA's agriculture related interventions. Kimetrica's survey team conducted pilot tests of instruments and liaised with AGRA staff and consultants on issues related to the rollout and survey implementation of the program.
