About One Acre Fund

One Acre Fund is a nonprofit social enterprise that supplies smallholder farmers with financing, high-quality seeds and fertilizer, field-based training, and market access to increase yields and incomes. Serving over 1 million farmers, it bundles inputs, asset loans, and hands-on agronomic support delivered directly to rural communities.
