MBC 2036 represents a ten-year vision to elevate the agricultural landscape in Mozambique by empowering millions through improved access and resources. By scaling our model, we aim to transition smallholder farmers from invisibility to abundance through data-driven planning and localized community support.
The Path to 2036
In 2036, the vision for agricultural development in Mozambique aims to reach the following milestones:
- 3 million farmers registered, credit-scored, and bankable.
- $4,252/year average farmer income, an increase from $584.
- $12-35 billion in dead capital activated through improved registration processes.
- 1,500 Smart Eco-Pods deployed across Mozambique.
- 6 million+ tons of CO2 sequestered annually.
- $1.31 billion/year GDP uplift.
- Recognition as a leader in African agri-fintech.
Impact on the Smallholder Season
For a smallholder farmer, this vision translates into a more predictable and productive season. By providing verified connections to local seed and fertilizer shops, farmers can secure the essential inputs required at the start of the planting cycle, ensuring they are better equipped for a successful harvest and long-term sustainability.
Frequently asked questions
What are Smart Eco-Pods? They are envisioned as integrated units designed to support agricultural productivity and sustainable practices on the ground.
How does CO2 sequestration affect farming? It represents the potential for environmental impact, where improved land management techniques help capture carbon while potentially increasing soil health.
Why is GDP uplift important for farmers? An increase in GDP related to agriculture often indicates that the entire sector is becoming more efficient, which translates to better market prices and higher household incomes for farmers.
Supporting Mozambique's Farmers
Maputo Bridge Capital, founded by Anselmo Boaventura in Fort Worth, Texas, works with the COJAZ cooperative in Zambezia to connect sponsors with verified smallholder farmers. You can sponsor a farmer from $25 by visiting our how it works page. Please note that sponsorships are gifts, not investments, and are not tax-deductible; 92% of your gift goes directly to the farmer's local seed and fertilizer shop, while 8% covers field verification and documentation.
