One Acre Fund supplies smallholder farmers with the financing and training they need to grow more food and earn more money. Instead of giving handouts, we invest in farmers to generate a gain in farm income One Acre Fund, driven by a transformative mission, stands at the forefront of empowering smallholder farmers by providing them not only with essential financing but also with the crucial training necessary to enhance their agricultural productivity and increase their income. Distinguishing itself from traditional aid models, One Acre Fund adopts a sustainable approach by investing in farmers, fostering self-reliance, and generating a tangible gain in farm income
