Tabit Smart Family Farmers
Due to the global climate change, lack of training and access to technology, the small family farmers’ income declines, the migration grows, and due to the excessive use of water, fertilizer, and chemical, the water, and productive soil get damaged. 90% of 570 million farmers, which produces 80% of our global food supply, is under threat as only a limited portion of technological solutions and training targets them.
Creating technological solutions that any literate farmer can manage water consumption, collect early information regarding the disease, risks, and usage of adequate amounts of fertilizer and medicine will increase productivity and efficiency of small farming businesses, protect our soil, water, and food supply.
Through our mobile infrastructure, we give farmers vital information related to their land and products; guiding them with meteorological data; informing them about current market prices and conditions and we have a marketing network which connects them to buyers.

We established a smart village in 2015 (300 acres)
Smart village model, allows decreasing fertilizer and medicine consumption, managing agricultural wastes efficiently, managing agricultural water consumption which stands for 70% of our global water consumption, and running husbandry operations in an animal rights compatible way through technology.
The Smart Village develops and applies technologies on planting, gardening, greenhouse, beekeeping, and husbandry; the outcomes are reported, and online/offline training sessions are served from which even a literate farmer can benefit. This model allows to develop and market technological solutions for individual farmers like large production enterprises benefit from, within easy-to-use and accessible ways.
Target Audience:Small family farmers who produce in villages

- Scale safe and private digital identity and financial tools to allow people and small businesses to thrive in the digital economy.
Farmers work in extremely challenging working conditions. They need to be in the field in plant production for the operations or disease monitoring. These operations can be carried out with smart systems. Farmers who see examples in adapt more easily to innovations that will make their lives easier.
Irrigation technologies and early warning systems against disease and agricultural pests to be adopted and widespread for farmers. This allows excessive consumption of water, fertilizer, and medicine so that prevents food and water toxication.
Preventing unintentional harmful activities of farmers, damaging our atmosphere by training and education.
- Growth: An organization with an established product, service, or business model rolled out in one or, ideally, several communities, which is poised for further growth.
So far, 65.310 farmers have received training and education over applied technologies on agriculture and
81.352 farmers have visited to observe and model smart village systems from Turkey and the rest of the world. 1,6 Million farmers receive regular updates from digital platforms, including web, mobile app, SMS, and call center.
The Smart Village is established within a 300-decare area, right next to a rural village with 250 farmer families living and running agricultural production.
Within the sample village, the productivity has increased by 60%, the migration slowed by 10%, and by 2% reverse migration has been experienced.
In the Smart Village, existing technologies are modeled for small family farmers, easy-to-use applications are developed, and widespread through training and education. AI-Backed irrigation and fertilization system, agricultural waste management system, and climate-driven farming management systems are implemented and widespread.
