lives so why does it still continue when law abiding singapore one the one east. it's a mobile world. with calls texts and apps to help make our lives easier. but not everyone's benefit. can mobile phone apps be designed to help make a better world this series challenges app developers from around the world to visit communities who are missing out and then come up with an app that can help. a life . this week life apps is in kenya the hub of africa's high tech boom but also

a country where four out of ten people live on less than two dollars a day. like most of the world realize those small scale farmers for food. farmers like william. in kenya. a former city dweller farming is now is like. the. two thousand. lupul took a good. seat could do a sequel. says

a. game. who could not listen to you lima because i could. but i. need to because. we guess and. good. lisa say you were doing. and. take it to two thousand. and making. do.

and. look down same would be to work with him. but it don't. maybe william can find the help he needs among the bright lights of kenya's capital city. nadir of the. it's full of life it's a miracle. i knew how to put you guys want. me to one of kenya's new breed of young software developers i want a new career keep on occasions develop a living and they will be a hell of a small startup in my friends called bt and consultants we create tools even i will go on to use more news challenges to design a mobile phone app to help william and millions of other small scale kenyan farmers . bellies it's cool and it's not

a craze in nairobi aside to it's just most people don't get to the mall but. this is my favorite joints one reason because the best judgment on on these on number two they have the best be in town. there'll be on isn't going to work gold is like that there are a lot of label be so all the techies hollow tell. me. it's a good time to be moving in there i'll be on the supreme said. excite. toot toot. kenya's take one to open your eyes like moon you cut it you'll keep launch as many

as five mobile phone apps a day. it's a good time to be living. on the. news always believe that mobile phone apps can help. people in the rural areas just as much as dogs in this city most people don't know what system information services but more bells provide that platform waits accessible it's convenient confuting your pockets then i don't see a reason why a truly to be accessible to the maison but really has. when you start up company has been going for just a couple of years. but. they team is just had some good news on one of their projects to be likely to be because we've secured some funds for low pay look one of the arabs who are doing development is fun and gives you the chance to create you create something and you see people use it i mean. such as fortune

are you from there you can't compare it to going to. the point of formation of whatever they are and no mobile phones are very cheap and therefore the. coverage more than anything else. lord will not change its mark on the lawn feature it's part of a logical system which is the information services to the mit information services what's a simple case who are in trouble this is. back in uganda it's the start of the long reigns for william it's time to plant. somebody and would be now a days or. a. key to come. mimic will.

come of this in a sealed to. make it but. so can moon you help william become the farmer he wants to be. filmmaker tony who helped come up with a life apps idea to new a challenge that he contra fuse is tasked to create a mobile application that can help farmers like william moyers agree to take seven days out of his busy schedule to crack it so you can just talk to him to just figure out the problems out and so you can develop a solution for him ok so down to the month you can just. go there look it's totally i'm. very accountable but i'm number twenty.

five. ok he was an awesome sonti ok. so we're good. good for the turn it's ok phone calls on this and. you you. know you you you always research is customize means normally in nairobi williams you gania is eight hours wakes you. up and. things that are given. to you and you. no you only. really believe. this but.

when they claim it's all experienced people believe. what they're feeling then see what the. new year will you leave. the. legal you'll begin to mine the moon us to work out what's stopping william making better use of his two acres. then he can design an app to help you. be a little tough to the sun and i don't think when danny range is on and up and began nailing s.f. enough for ice a bubble to double up the telephone of the sunni. and then the limo some balcony or to like any normal sex wednesdays and he says that the most mbanga mean a to be defined in the b. ditch he is in to be defined be he may be defined c.

says that killing him in a gina let me marry is equal this is. the same to me bunda and damn i'm seeing who mark i dare you to be anywhere not a double minded man because. now says i keep on buying that to some busyness seem cool. and even seasickness at funny ok somehow become a pilot and making a scene from the scene he gets in to not find the. name says and the total in a way that he can and i says am doing nothing when i'm lying. and then he said when i talk when i'm one of the coin door and all of them one of them. william suffers from the same problems a small scale farmers globally he has no modern water pumps he can't afford fertilizes and without proper transport he can only still crops locally so williams

joined a farmers group to try and pull knowledge and resources to kink human embryo. do you think it is i mean there. again and again. going to be able to link here. with me with impunity to say that gets you to bed and you assess it and then said and then go jim of what he said what they said. to him the other night when i said forget the so called says and you have to tango yet when it comes late and living. in it that the fact that two liam is already in a group and it's barely two months old it's a starting point because it's already brought people together so even you developing a solution to that and he's going to be a platform and you can use them one of the test groups or a focus group and also start from hearing problems from other following as well because now we've had to both really and maybe another families facing

a slightly different problem you. do like the. city boy moving use about to taste some kenyan country cooking with william special needs crop is indigenous kenyan vegetables. or anything like that colette going to take the food before we take it in the sense case. he may turn into a question that limbo yes i mind he said but you you you you you you know you. you. know vickey. we don't want to have you know you'll. go over you'll. pick. your head in.

your you. next and when use research trip is a visit to you getting a town center he's going to meet william's group of local farmers. new wants to know if other farmers have the same problems as william. and how we can design a mobile phone app to help. find any. from but i see myself as a. no no no you think you know this is going to turn to can build a light. laser turn your magic gun that. like in me is if i do you need to come get a good show systems. when i say my call to pinedale community is that i do two parties in big to find the appeal of the meeting was good and after listening to. and his problems all the

challenges he faces and he's doing is harming they're not unique to him other guys in the community also facing more or less the same problems. when you want to research how much the crops william grows could fix so he heads to one of the largest markets in the area. it's only forty kilometers from williams home but he's never even been here. every turn journey using public transport would cost him five dollars almost a week's income. so it's williams first jones to find out how much the indigenous vegetables he grows could sell for in the big local markets. you know nothing about

them again. and. try to feed. them. in the south suburbs sounds a little bit to get back to the question of the tunnel. in manderson's up our city is you need something to. sell some good to her said. that is a no no she doesn't look at or before winds up on the top she down there so. move to more dining room you know for coming in. to work you know now you've given up when i say much about your city and you know when you're more than when i'm with you when you leave it when you want to when you're bill you want to sign up to pick up someone analytical maccie. pooling resources with a group could mean lower costs and higher returns for their produce. more you

realize this is how a mobile phone app could help looking up from the fall mas to the groups now and then lol what the market for this is a lot of ideas to be explored in the same media was all the problems become visible from a group level today as a group you want to what source you support you see how much will this particular item before you see that they will be intelligence reporting it as it will be able to sell his produce and also to what you need to know who to feed and how much to better you know you. you know you'll you'll know you'll you'll you'll ruin your interview. it's a quick goodbye to william as more use of back to nairobi. his challenge is to design an app that can help william make a better life from farming. it is a sad story unfortunately. and was see the food prices it might all be ridiculously

high and these guys can sell their produce out i mean for instance you give me an example here into the market we fail untreated the ceilings of all farm produce he only sold a hundred killings. so there is tall and about protein and becoming compost.
