525 million smallholder farmers grow 70% of the world’s food, yet they’re among the poorest people on earth.
We're changing that.
Creating a better tomorrow, today.
Jiva empowers smallholder farmers to adopt better practices, adapt to new conditions and grow their incomes.
What we do
At Jiva, we’re focused on solving four critical challenges that farmers around the world face every day.
Finance
Jiva provides no-cost advances for agricultural inputs. This allows farmers to buy better supplies they can repay at harvest. Buy now, pay later.
Supplies
With Jiva, farmers can purchase high-quality supplies through the e-commerce store on our app. We deliver these supplies to them, no extra charge.
Yield
Our personalised, AI-powered advice engine delivers relevant, feasible advice to farmers — helping them produce better-quality crops and increased yield.
Market
Jiva allows farmers to sell their crops with ease. Arrange pickup, cross-check prices, see cost breakdowns; all in one app.

Meet Alfian, our 21-year-old Sahabat Jiva who changed his family’s lives
Our content team recently made a field visit to Jiva’s operational areas. They have collected stories from the ground, hoping to capture our impact on the farming community. This blog post series follows our Sr. Content Specialist, Nea Ningtyas, as she shares her encounters with inspiring figures on the field. In this piece, she recollects her conversation with Alfian, our youngest Sahabat Jiva from South Sulawesi.
What our farmers have to say
“Production was not optimal. Then Jiva came to us and we got a tremendous advantage”
“I’m very excited to follow Jiva’s advice, which are different from my usual practices. I feel that Jiva is looking out for us, and bringing new life to farmers”
“I am definitely doing better at this point in the crop cycle compared to the previous season. I am using better quality seeds and have learnt proper fertilisation techniques”
