Accessing market price information. Agrilinks collects price information from regional markets on a daily basis. Our enumerators are collecting this information for bulk and retail sales for more than 20 produces across Sierra Leone and uploading them on the platform. Users can access the average prices per crop per district to help them price their own goods or decide on the most profitable market opportunity. These prices are communicated in local units of measurement (bag, cup, pan, tie, etc.) and in metric unit (price per kilo or liter). For example, a user requesting the average price for corn seeds for Kono district will receive the average price for a bag of corn seeds (with the conversion in kilo) and for a cup of corn seeds (with the conversion in kilo).

Putting up produce for sell. Users that produce agricultural goods can put them up for sell on the platform. Farmers will have to select the crop they want to sell, the quantity available and the price. Their offer will then be accessible to potential buyers. grilinks users that have registered this produce as one of their main produce of interest or that are located in the same district will receive a text message with the offer and the possibility to contract the seller. For example, a user in Moyamba district that has 10 bags of coconut to sell can advertise them on the platform and all the users interested in coconut or registered in Moyamba will receive a text message indicating the availability of 10 bags of coconut and the price per bag set by the seller
