Impact & Expansion
At AquaSoil, we measure success by the tangible impact we create for farmers, communities, and the environment. Our pilot projects in Niger and Burkina Faso have demonstrated significant yield increases, water savings, and improved livelihoods. Building on this success, we’re rapidly expanding across the Sahel and beyond to reach millions more smallholder farmers.
Proven Impact
25%+ Increase in Yields: Pilot farms using AquaSoil’s Smart Drip-Irrigation and Soil Aeration tools saw crop yields rise by 25% or more compared to traditional methods.
30% Reduction in Water Use: Farmers saved up to 30% of their irrigation water, thanks to precise water delivery and real-time monitoring.
Soil Carbon Sequestration: Improved soil health through aeration and reduced tillage has led to increased soil organic matter, capturing atmospheric C02.
Water Conservation: By saving millions of liters of water annually, AquaSoil contributes to sustainable water management in the Sahel.
Gender-Inclusive Training: Over 40% of participants in our training workshops are women, empowering them with skills and opportunities in agriculture.
Community Resilience: Higher yields and stable incomes have strengthened food security and reduced migration pressures in pilot communities.
Expansion Plans
Pilot Regions: Niger (Agadez) and Burkina Faso (Sourou).
Farmers Reached: Over 2,000 smallholder farmers across 50+ villages.

Why Our Model Scales
Performance-Based Financing
Our "pay-as-you-grow” model ensures farmers adopt technology only when it proves profitable, reducing risk and accelerating scale.
Integrated Tech Bundle
By combining irrigation, soil aeration, and digital tools into a single lease package, we address multiple challenges simultaneously, increasing impact per farmer.
Data-Driven Insights
Our anonymized field telemetry creates a scalable data layer, attracting partnerships with insurers, input suppliers, and NGOs while protecting farmer privacy.
Strong Local Networks
Deep partnerships with farmer cooperatives and extension services ensure last-mile delivery, trust, and support for long-term adoption.
