Leveraging Farm Scoring to Unlock Credit Access for Small and Medium Scale Shrimp Farmers in Indonesia: A Feasibility Study
The researchers continue collaborating with an Indonesian aquaculture technology company that offers data-driven solutions to shrimp farmers to enhance productivity and operational management. The platform has built a comprehensive membership database of farmers subscribing to its platform, with one of its key features being an algorithmic score based on the inputs and performance of farmers recorded through a mobile app. Researchers are exploring the potential to leverage this platform's data to improve farmers’ access to formal credit from banks.
