A deliberately simplified view: large icons, short sentences and no jargon, built to work on a basic phone and to be pushed out over SMS or WhatsApp.
Designed for accessibility and low connectivity. Icon-led guidance, plain language, and no data-heavy maps — every advisory below also goes out as a text message to 2 800 registered farmers.

Message delivery is mocked in this demo. In production, advisories would be generated from the rainfall outlook and NDVI signal, then dispatched through an SMS/WhatsApp gateway with opt-in consent and language selection per farmer.
